Sand and Waves

Now that summer is winding down for us and the school year is quickly approaching, we took a beach vacation with my mom and step-dad. They rented a house just south of Myrtle Beach for us to spend the week. At first, the kids and I were the only ones to join them, but later in the week, Mike surprised the kids by showing up late one night.

We spent most of the time playing in the sand and the water. 

The kids got new boogie boards and even Anna Grace learned to ride the waves with the help of her big brother and Daddy.




We had a really relaxing week of just spending time at the beach and then playing in the pool whenever we needed a change of scenery.  There were lots of games of "Monkey in the Middle" that even my mom and step-dad joined in on. 


We ate most of our meals at the beach house, but we did eat out a few times.  We loved this really great place to eat at Myrles Inlet that had a long boardwalk connecting lots of fun restaurants.

      Hi! How exciting about your adoption! Is your child from Henan also? To answer your question, we ate a Creek Ratz. There were quite a few restaraunts all located together and the backs are all connected by a long boardwalk along the water. Many of the restaraunts had live music and outdoor eating. It was just the casual, beachy feel that I love, and the fish tacos we totally awesome! Have a great trip!
