Beach Bums Just One More Time

To get the feel of the wonderful weekend getaway we just had in Hilton Head, cue some Beach Boys or Jack Johnson and imagine yourself on the beach listening to the sound of the waves soaking in the sun. We’ve wanted another chance to go to the beach before we relax our kung fu grip on the summer months and instead embrace the coolness of fall. This weekend was that chance.

Have you seen the movie Powder? It’s about an albino guy who had lived his whole life in a basement completely concealed from any sunlight. Well, now you have an idea what I felt like heading back out into the sun after another long remission. It felt so nice to have that chance again.

The highlight of the time was probably the walk along the beach at sunrise. God orchestrated the clouds that morning for the kind of symphony only he can pull off. I wish the pictures could do justice, but it’s hard to capture that kind of beauty.

End of Summer 2007 Vacation

Okay - so I just noticed ya'lls post on our Family Life Weekend to Remember blog post! So, glad you found us and stopped by. Aggies in Columbia, SC - what a crazy combination. There aren't many of us - but go to Muster in April - it's a small, but very nice/friendly/fun group!
