Beach Trip 2011

Last week we took our annual beach trip to Hunting Island, South Carolina. It is a beautiful state park. It's quiet and calm and perfect for families with small children.


We saw beautiful sunrises and sunsets....














Had fun in the ocean and on the beach....




















Even with Hurricane Irene knocking at our door!











Saw awesome sand (mud actually) sculptures created on the driftwood...













The two who were tall enough went up into the lighthouse and saw the view....
















And took a walk on the marsh boardwalk and saw millions of crabs...




















We also rode around at night looking for all the animals that call Hunting Island home... A special species of white tail deer, raccoons, a fox, and many many cats. This was maybe everyone's favorite part of the day. We all had a lot of fun... it's amazing to look at the pictures year after year and see how everyone and everything has grown and changed!
