trip out there and it being a business trip for David...we really had
a good time. Long trip out. It took us 13 hours because we
got caught in Atlanta traffic for 2 hours.
We spent Sunday afternoon together walking the beach, shopping,
laying out by the pool and eating at a good restaurant called The
Old Oyster Restaurant. The temps were in the mid to upper 60's.
The beach was very windy and cool; however, we did rent bikes
and took a bike ride down the beach quite a ways. Nathan loved
riding in the water and loved the fact that we were getting sopping
wet!
Monday and Tuesday David made trips to Savannah to check on a
job he has going. The kids and I spent time between the beach
and the pool and eating lunch outside at the cafe. We watched and
fed the fish (carp) that swam beneath us in a huge pool of water.
Nathan saved one of his hamburger buns just for this special time
and low and behold a black bird came by and swiped it from him.
He was very upset to say the least and everyone around us was
laughing histerically.
On Monday afternoon we were fortunate enough to have Uncle Norval
and Aunt Susie join us from Charleston. We enjoyed their visit and
our time at the South Beach Marina where we ate at the Crazy Crab.
We did a little shopping afterward there at the marina and headed back
to our hotel where we visited until the kids got cranky and tired and
literally ran them off.
Tuesday David came home a little earlier so that I could go get a massage.
Oh my gosh....it felt wondeful. It was time and money well spent and helped
prepare me for the long trip home.
The staff and hotel were very nice. Hilton Head is a beautifl area. We didn't
see as much of it or do as much as we would have liked off the resort but
it was very relaxing for me and for the kids. Poor David... alot of work and little
play. It was beautiful weather Monday and Tuesday in the mid 70's. We did
get some sun. We even sunburned. Believe it or not all of that is already gone.
I hope we can go back again someday. Fun times and great memories!

David watching the children play on last day. They needed to get their energy out before long drive home.
Standing around the fire outside Salty Dog eating ice cream. It was a cool evening yet we still wanted...ice cream...the fire helped.
Nathan getting a picture by the penguin. Eveywhere we went he wanted a picture with the penguins.
Those were about the only smiles we got the entire trip.
Uncle Norval and Aunt Susie came down from Charleston, SC to visit and eat supper with us.
We ate at the Crazy Crab. The food was delicious.
Nathan ran.....
......and RAN
....and RAN.....all day long on the beach!

Room location.
One of Shelby's favorite things on our vacation was just sunning herself!
AND SWIMMING!

Nathan and Dad digging in the sand and making a fort! They suffered thru the wind while Shelby
and I headed for the room to get ready for supper.
Nathan was so funny. He went around stomping the sand saying...FEE...FI...FO...FUM!
We had fun riding bikes along the beach front.

We had fun riding bikes along the beach front. It was great exercise; however, no matter how
easy it was heading south down the beach it was
extremely difficult heading back north in the wind
(especially with Nathan riding tandem).
