There's nothing like...an island girl!

This morning, our family, along with Jim, Mom, Lindsey, Randy and the Dunlap's left for Hilton Head Island. We took 4 cars and they were all loaded down with all our belongings. Here are my kiddos getting ready for the road trip ahead:Our road trip went great! Edan slept most of the morning and each of the kids had their own activity bag that had coloring books, crayons, books, and DS games. It took us 7 hrs. from Knoxville to Hilton Head. We made really good time! About 2 weeks before we left Bradley called an organizational lunch meeting and we planned what we are doing day by day. Tonight was pizza night and we ordered in one of our favs, Giuseppi's Pizza. Our place has a covered porch and we ate dinner outside tonight.

After dinner, mom surprised the girls with a new book, Goldilicious, a third sequel to Pinkalicious and Purplicious: After eating yummy stuffed pizza everyone wanted to go see the ocean! We started walking on the path to get there:

After about 1/2 mile walk we were on the beach! Here is Eli's reaction!:

and Edan's:

It was a sight to see how much they loved the water! When we came 2 years ago, all the girls bought shirts to take home as souvenirs. Lindsey wanted all of us to wear them on our way down and they say....There's nothing like....and island girl! I can't wait for this week, it is going to be so much fun!
