Summer in Savannah

While Nathan was away at camp I took the opportunity to fly out to Georgia to visit the Conatser/Gibson family. As you may recall I took this trip last summer! The weather cooperated for the most part and we were able to do many fun things outdoors. I felt a lot better this trip than last year (just a month after my surgery) and was able to really play with the kiddos. Its amazing how much more playful I am with other people's kids. Don't get me wrong, I play with my kids. BUT, not having to discipline the kids and just be their "auntie" is so much more fun!! 

Another reason this trip is so special is that I get to spend my birthday with Beverly "Shug" Gibson who shares the same birthday as I do. Her daughter, my best bud-Julie, treats us both right and we feel very loved on our special day!!
 Sunday morning brunch at J. Christopher's- delicious!!

 Monday we headed to Hilton Head, South Carolina!
 
I love swimming in the warm Atlantic Ocean!

For our birthdays, Julie took us to Moe's (their version of Chipotle) for lunch. Here are a few fun shots of me and the kiddos before we left!
 Ethan dressed up for us!
 I love sweet Maddie
 Emma is growing up right before my eyes!!

 My feet on the cobblestone streets of Savannah
 Julie made us a yummy white cake with coconut on top-
So good I had two slices!!
 We spent a lot of time playing at the clubhouse pool. It's the only way
to beat the humidity and heat!!

I can't wait to go back again. Although I missed my family, five days just wasn't long enough with this awesome family!! Love you guys!!
