Beach

Autumn wanted to go to the beach for her birthday, but we had to wait a couple of weeks before we could go. We had to wait on Brittney's dance recital and I didn't want to go the week after school got out. She invited two friends to go with here. We stayed at my grandmother's house at Holden Beach. We left on Sunday and came back today. It was Nani's first time on the beach. She loved it. By the time we left, she was covered with sand from head to tail.

What was I thinking...including Brittney, there were four teen aged girls, but they had fun! At times, I thought I was going to pull my hair out!
I don't like to get in the ocean because I can't see my feet. When I was little, it didn't bother me and I would go in. Man, I was really pale! I wore sunblock, but I am still a little pink now. Chad and Tyler both look like lobsters.
Autumn wanted to go to Planet Hollywood in Myrtle Beach, so we went on Monday. We took my Dad for a late Father's Day dinner and we took my grandmother too. That is my Dad and grandmother standing in the background looking at the menu.
All of the girls ordered non-alcoholic drinks called "Finding Nemo".
This pic was taken at Planet Hollywood while we were waiting for our table.
On Tuesday, we went to Myrtle Waves. I didn't get any pictures there. We also took them to play putt-putt on Sunday night, walked on the pier and got ice cream on Monday night, and went to walk on the beach Tuesday night with flash lights right when it was getting dark. Nani went with us. Chad found this huge crab and Nani was trying to chase it. I wouldn't let her because I was afraid it would pinch her. We are planning to go back to the beach in August for Tyler's birthday and let him bring a friend. Brittney is going to invite Haley since she was in Massachusetts and couldn't go this time.
We are leaving on Friday for Asheville to go camping with my Mom and my step family.

  3. I am not sure when we are going. We have to find out when Haley can go. I asked Chad why he didn't smile and he said that he never smiles for a picture.

  4. That sounds like a lot of sun! I'm a little too pale too right now. I'm glad y'all had a good time!

  6. I am so jealous of all the beach pictures I've been seeing lately. Looks like everyone had fun (except for Chad, lol). Hope y'all enjoyed your camping trip, too.
