Beach Bums

Now that I have finished posting about the wedding festivities
I can finally post about our vacation.
I had been in Charleston since June 22nd and Hubs came down on the 25th. Sunday after the wedding we had breakfast and said our goodbyes to everyone (even though half of them were meeting us at Myrtle Beach, SC later that day). Hubs and I had lunch with his parents and a great aunt and uncle before we left.

Here we are outside of Vickery's in Charleston before lunch.
Then we made the 1 and 1/2 hour trip from Charleston to Myrtle Beach. Our friends, Lindsey and Tommy, were planning on staying an extra night to hang out with us. We went to dinner at River City Cafe which has the best hamburgers ever.

The 4 of us after dinner.

Lindsey and I. We teach at the same high school.

The house across the street from ours that my aunt, uncle, and cousins were staying in.

Monday we laid out at the beach and then went to dinner at a Mongolian Grill. It was delicious. You go through and choose all your vegetables, meats, and noodles and then they cook it for you on a huge turntable. Here is daddy and my cousin Donavon waiting to go to dinner.

Hubs and I before dinner.
And of course mom and I. You can see all the sun I had gotten from laying out by the ocean all day.
The rest of the week we hung out with family and just relaxed. We went and saw The Hangover finally and it was hilarious. We did karaoke one night and had a blast.
On Thursday we headed to North Myrtle Beach to stay with Hub's family at their condo in Barefoot Landing. (Our families always go down around the 4th of July which is great because we can always split the week between and them and spend time with both families)

Hubs and I at the marina for dinner on Thursday.
While staying with his family we hung out at the pool, went to see My Sister's Keeper, and did some shopping at the outlets.

On the 4th we went down to the marina and watched the fireworks.

I loved the flag blowing in the wind.
And at last the fireworks.
We had such a good time on vacation but it is always nice to be home.
Especially after being gone for so long.
