While in PCB we went to the beach 4 times (the water is amazingly beautiful there), went to the pool everyday, David & I got to play golf twice (thanks Dad & Lisa for babysitting), played mini-golf twice, ate WAY too much (he he) and got some good quality time with my nephews Chase & Braden.
Sadly enough, this is the only family shot we got all week!
One of the best parts of our trip was our day on the Sea Dragon...a Pirate Ship cruise.
Chase, Alyssa & Braden headed for the pirate ship
The Sea Dragon Pirate Ship
The 5 of us were joined by my stepmom Lisa, Braden & Chase for a 2-hour cruise. Boy did they keep those kids busy! They had the boys swab the deck (mop), they all got their faces painted (well not Chase - he didn't think that was so cool!), they read them a pirate story, went hunting for a treasure, got to enjoy the treasure, played limbo, danced with tamborines, and the best part....a real, live water gun fight with another boat. It was hysterical and those kids were drenched when it was over :-)

All in all, our time in PCB went by extremely too fast, but we filled every moment with fun things that given us memories to last a lifetime. My kids are still talking about Pop Pop & Lisa's beach house! They can't wait to go back...and neither can I :-)
Alyssa enjoying the weather at dinner - I love this pic!
After we left PCB we headed to my dad's house in Tallahassee for a few days where I got to meet my beautiful niece Madelyn (aka Maddie). I spent hours holding her (no it didn't make me want another one!!) and we got to see my grandma too.

When we left FL we were KID FREE -woo hoo!!! Thanks again Dad & Lisa for keeping the kids - they had such a good time.
David I headed home alone and took a short pitstop in Lake Norman, NC - outside Charlotte. We spent 2 days there golfing and house hunting....we think we've found our future home, but when is the 10 million dollar question!
As always, vacations come to an end way too fast and before we knew it we were back in Simpsonville (what I call where we live) and headed back to work....but we did manage to get in TONS and TONS of golf while the kids were gone. More on that later...

Great post and pics! Chase is still talking about that pirate ship! I am glad you guys all had a great time! Wish that we could have come! Maybe next year b/c I surely will not be prego then!! :-)
I LOVE the pictures! They are all so good that I can't pick a favorite. Your trip sounds like a blast. BTW, you look awesome!
I cannot believe that McKenna held that snake. I wouldn't have been able to get close enough to take a picture of her. :-)
Dominic was in the room when I was reading your post and I laughed out loud about your car. Sorry, I could just see that happening to us too. I then had to read it to him. He really got a kick out of David saying that he knew you needed a battery. :-)
