Litchfield Beach: Part 2

On Wednesday, Annie came to visit.  With a gigantic unicorn for Hollan.  Now named Rainbow Flowers.
 We also went to Georgetown to see the plantation.  The view from the bridge to Georgetown.

 The gate to Friendfield.

 Going for a walk.

 Hollan LOVED the plantation.  She could have explored for hours.

 Looking for gators.  We did see a little one but it slid into the water before I could get a good pic.
 First time in the back of a pick up.
 Visiting Silver Hill house.
 Bibs and Spanish moss.
 The old rice fields.
 The same porch where Evan and Lisa got married 9 years ago!
 A sweet head lock.

 The Silver Hills gardens.
 The old stables.
 Hollan just ran into the middle of the yard and starting pretending and singing.  What a free spirit this gal is.
 Love.
 Grannie Annie.


 Bibs and her pick up truck.
 This pic might look familiar...Daddy & Emmett.
 Thanksgiving in SC, 2008....Daddy & Evan.
A stroll through Georgetown with Aunt Lisa.
 A belated birthday cake for Annie & Hollan.
 Hollan in her necklace she made with Annie.
 A little afternoon performance.  About unicorns and volcanoes.
 Annie & Emmy D.
 Loving the hammock.
 This guy lived under the house.  Goo.
 Emmett loved crawling into and out of the waves.
 Dudes boogey boarding.
 And the ultimate vacation topper...the ice cream truck.  Yee haw.

Litchfield Beach: Part 1

On Saturday, we left Atlanta and drove 6 1/2 hours to the beach in SC.  The kids all did so great on the long drive but we were still to happy to arrive!
 The Emmy Man loves him some beach.
 On Sunday, our friends the Autrys came down from Summerville to hang with us.  They rent the same house every summer so they showed us the ropes.  And Owen showed Evan the costume bin.
 Birthday buds.  Owen was born about 12 hours before Evan!

 On Sunday afternoon the Camps arrived.  Lyn and Elaine nerding out with the NY Times crossword book.
 Grandpa Joe.
 My boys rocking it.  Ha!
 Evan was christened a truly South Carolina beach bum with his first jelly sting.  It was minor, but it counts!

 Fellowhipping on the porch.
 DeeDee giving Emmett his first peach cobbler.
 The Minnesotan teaching the southerners about Kubb.  The chess of Vikings.
 Dousing Uncle Ted with ice water for his ALS Challenge.  It was enjoyable.
 Emmett and Uncle Evan getting some time to catch up.
 The Camp Dudes.
 Grandpa Joe & DeeDee.
 The Camp siblings.  We sure do miss D-Doe!!
 Our beach set up.
 Big beach babe.
