St. Simons


 The summer is slipping by way too fast!  Last spring we had so many graduations, birthdays and trips planned that it seemed like it would go on forever! 
In June we had a couple of trips for Marc's work.  We have been blessed to be able to have some fun getaways with him.  One of the trips was to St. Simons.  Because it was shorter than the Savannah trip we were able to take the oldest two (and Macheus tagged along. :)  Matthew works a ton and with school keeping him so tied down, it was a sweet time of getting to enjoy the bigger kids!

 
The waves were a little wild the first day we got there.  The kids made me nervous getting out in it! I've decided I'm a beach person, but not so much an ocean person! :) 
 

The pools at the place we stayed were so beautiful!  Mac enjoyed moving from one to the next!



The kiddie area was the perfect spot for him.


Four years old.... stay little a little longer sweet boy! (Just realized I spelled his name wrong. LOL!)


Matthew and Madeline both have enjoyed the slower pace of summer with no college classes.  It did my heart good to see them relaxing.




Just watchin' the waves......



Marc was in conference meetings much of the time, but he did get a few breaks to enjoy the water.


This picture makes me laugh.  That expression doesn't look like him. :)



Looked like a storm was brewing but it ended up being just a sprinkle.



 

We enjoyed a night out at Bennie's steak house. If you ever go to St. Simons it is definitely worth going there!  The steak was amazing!



I love the huge, old trees in St. Simons!  Such a beautiful place!


Bennie's Red Barn


And... we can't go to St. Simons without playing on the playground!



I enjoy taking these little trips with just a few of the kiddos at a time.  However, there is nothing like the whole family being together!  In July we all got to go to the beach together!  I will post about that next time!
