Life is Good

We are so fortunate when mornings start like this...

And 8 hours later end like this...

Life in Mt. P is good.  Really good!  We have great friends, who happen to own a boat.  Quality family time...nuff said :)

The Miske's Visit

The first 4 weeks of summer were nice and leisurely.  We slept late, didn't make too many plans, and just enjoyed our days.

Then our summer took a crazy turn and we haven't stopped moving!

First up was a visit from family.  The Miske's came to visit!



The first night they were here we went to Izzy's Parable-looza performance which will get a post of its own!

The next morning we took a boat ride over to Morris Island.  It was 2.5 hours total (15 minutes to the island, 2 hours searching for treasures, and 15 minutes back).  It was the perfect kid friendly boat excursion.



On our way to Morris Island




We had the place to ourselves








We even found a couple treasures along the way - lots of shells, shark teeth, sand dollars and a ton of blue crab!




And no trip to Charleston would be complete without a trip to the beach





While Izzy and Katy were nearly inseparable...Drew hung with the big girls.
















We had some fun trying to create a "star fish" type picture


Flying our kite


And covering Pete in sand


And finally, while the beach is a must see, so is Jack's Cosmic Dog.

no one even looks at the camera, rather they just keep putting food in their mouths!

Thanks for coming to visit!
