Weekend

We packed up the car on Friday and headed to Summerville for the weekend.

Where we celebrated Jared's 30th birthday!




Visited a plantation.




Ate snow cones.




Played until our heart's content.


Babysat Miss Isla so her mommy and daddy could enjoy an evening out to celebrate Jared's birthday.


Scrub-a-dub-dub three kids in the tub! :-)





Thanks for another relaxing weekend! See you next time! And soon, hopefully in Greenville before we wear out our welcome.

Weekend.

Not this week...the last one. The one we just got caught up from, yet another one is already here?!

It was a great weekend. You can read about it HERE.

Thanks and have a great day!

Kidding.

I'll add a few more pics because I can't let you go about your weekend without seeing Parker and her sand eating time at the beach. :-)

What's that you said Mom? No? Well, all the more reason to chow down on some shells...
and smile back at you while doing so.

Some serious sand castle planning




Aaaannnndddd one more of the cute sand eating baby.


Besides for spending the day at the beach, we also spent a lot of time at their new house. It was so nice and my kids loved the space!

Sunday morning pancake approval by Parker


And then a little pool and sprinkler action






because it was really too hot to do anything else!

This time last year.

I had a huge belly. Man that thing was huge.

Isla was Parker's age.

Lane looked like a baby.

And we spent the weekend with our friends.

You can read about it HERE.

Can't wait to do it again...this weekend...minus the belly, plus one more little.

Lane's been asking where Isla is so I guess that means it's been too long. Summerville and the Matheys: Here WE come!!

Hiking!

We did this a few weeks ago, but time got away from me. Definitely a fun way to get some exercise!

Scoping out our trail.
















Parker fell asleep after an hour.


She got a nice looong nap.


Lane made sure to keep on us the right trail.


I think he really enjoyed it. He kept telling Matt "I'm so happy Da-ee!"

We're Baaccckkk

We hadn't been downtown in over 2 weeks because we were gone!

The Tuesday we got back, I drove down there to return library books, but we didn't have time to stop. As we were driving through Lane said, "Umm, I think maybe we should go downtown?" He apparently was missing it too!



So Friday we hit up Main St Fridays. So fun. None of our "regulars" were there, but we still had fun with just us.



Parker had some grub and watched all the action.












I was so caught up in the downtown experience, I let my son drink Hog Wash? Really? I have no idea!










Once the music started to wind down, we were hungry and decided Barley's was in order for some pizza! Even though it was 9:00 when we sat down, both the kids did great. Lane ate his pesto pizza and Parker got her first taste of pita and black bean hummus!

When we were done, we wanted to take a walk to Falls Park since it had been so long.


Parker's going through the "I don't like grass" stage.






It was a late night so everyone slept in on Saturday morning.
