This summer we were lucky enough to get to go to the beach with both sides of our family. Matt's family for the 4th of July and then a month later we went with my family. My dad's sister & BIL have a house at Myrtle Beach so they go each summer for a few weeks. While Betsy & Jeff were at the beach, my cousins Mij, Morgan, and Mark (from Chicago) all came down as well. My parents, Matt, the kids and I all took an extra long weekend vacation.
Matt & I had planned on leave Wednesday night but of course, right as we were getting ready to put the kids in the car a "hurricane" came through (like 3" of rain in an hour type storm with major lightening and thunder), so we decided it would be best to wait until the next morning and leave early. I mean, we are used to getting up super early for work/school anyway, so what difference would it make to us? Turns out, it was a great plan! We were at the beach by about 11:30, met my parents for lunch, and then headed out to the beach for a few hours. Brayden and Lilly had a blast! We were lucky that my Godmother let us stay in her condo in N. Myrtle Beach and her place is only 2 blocks off the beach. There were thousands of these little shells that moved up and down the beach. We hardly ever see them at Sunset Beach where we go with Matt's family.

The next day, we met up again to go to the beach. Again, a storm eventually ran us off the beach, but we did hang out in the pool for a while 1st. Lilly had a blast on the beach and in the pool and Brayden loved playing with his cousin Mark. Lilly & Brayden both got lots of loving and attention from everyone, especially Morgan and Mark.
Thank you Betsy, Jeff, Mij, Morgan, and Mark for a great few days at the beach! Hopefully, we will see you all again next year at the beach!
