Hilton Head Part 2

Saturday morning we got up and enjoyed some more time on the beach before we had to checkout. It was a little warmer this time but still too cold to get in the water!
I found this oyster shell with a tiny little crab in it. The girls thought it was so cool!
Here the girls are picking up shells - that was their favorite thing about the whole trip.
Here is one of Kaden's little buddies ...
The girls looking for more shells - isn't the background beautiful?
The sun was too bright for Kaden! He won't keep his sunglasses on though, so he just fussed about it ... LOL
Me and the girls on the beach ...
Clint and the kids on the beach ...
The view from our balcony at our hotel - the ocean is out there, it's just hard to see! The resort was beautiful and we look forward to going back, hopefully soon. And when it's warmer!

Hilton Head Island

We got to Hilton Head Island late Friday afternoon. We stayed at the Hilton Oceanfront Resort - it was very nice! It was cold and windy but we still got to enjoy the beach and just being away, together as a family. This is a pic I snapped when we first got to Hilton Head ...

This is a shot of our room - it also had a little kitchen area and a nice bathroom. These are the most comfy hotel beds EVER!
We put all of our stuff down in our room and then hurried out to the beach, just at sunset. It was so pretty!!

I believe that my Father is an incredible artist. Check out this sunset He painted for us ...
The girls really wanted to get in the water but it was way too cold and I didn't want any sick kids when we got back home. Kaden was more interested in all the birds. He kept pointing and saying "Bird! Bird!"
Here are some of Kaden's little bird buddies ...
This is the girls - as you can tell the wind was really kickin' and it was COLD!
Clint and Kaden enjoying the beach - and the birds!
Clint and I on the beach - the only picture of us the entire trip! It took about 20 to get just this one!
Clint and the girls, enjoying the artistry of the Father ...
We went and ate at Fudrucker's that night - good burgers, even better milkshakes! Here is Clint posing for the camera ...
This is Kaden eating a pickle!
The girls sharing a chocolate milkshake ...
Kaden and me sharing the other half of Clint's strawberry shake ...
And then we went back to the room and everyone passed out before 9:30 that night!!!!

Savannah

We took a spur of the moment trip a few weeks ago to Hilton Head, SC. I found a great deal on-line and we were long overdue for a trip out of town. We stopped in Savannah for lunch and walked along River Street. It was my first time in Savannah, and the kids, so we really enjoyed it. This is a picture of the bridge out of Savannah, taken from River Street ...

This is Clint & the kids walking along one of the beautiful streets downtown ...

This is Clint and Kaden on the "pirate ship" as Abby called it. Actually it's a beautiful boat called the Peacemaker that is open to the public.

This is the girls on the deck of the Peacemaker ...

And this is the Peacemaker ...

February Misc

Clint grilled ribs & chicken for us last weekend and we invited my Daddy & Matt over to eat. Clint was so proud of his masterpiece (and it WAS delicious) so I thought I'd post pictures!
Kaden and his Peepa - they sure do love each other!

Kaden and his Uncle Matt - he looks just like him and he loves him to death! Vice Versa!Kaden playing the guitar, complete with HeeHaw straw hat.

Kaden loving on me after he headbutted me and cracked my nose - AGAIN!

Kaden in Grace's bike helmet - yes it's purple, but that's okay!

Kaden showing his belly ...

And yes I know all the pics were of Kaden but you have to understand as a stay at home Mom, he's here with me all the day so I get to capture all his cute stuff. I promise I love my girls, too - and I'll try to take more pics of them!! LOL

Father Daughter Dance

Abby's school hosted a Father-Daughter Dance this year and Clint took both of his girls. The girls were beautiful and Clint cleaned up pretty well, too! : ) They enjoyed a night of dancing and playing with their friends, then dinner out with their Daddy. Here are some pics - enjoy!
