Fall Beach Fun

We only went to the beach once during the summer...I guess we are making up for lost time because this fall the beach has been calling our names.  The week following Jack's first birthday we were at Emerald Isle with my side of the family.  We usually take this trip in January but have decided to switch it to September so that we can enjoy the sun and sand a little more.  It was the most amazing week with perfect weather, plenty of sunshine, good food, fun on the beach, and lots of family togetherness.  Some highlights include:
Fun in the sun


 Big sand pits and little boys
 Pumpkins on the beach
 Birthday balloons on the beach
 Bubbles, bubbles, and more bubbles

 Baby surfer boy

 Outside dinners
 Jack's first trip to the aquarium
 Playground fun

Then, the first week of October we headed to Hilton Head, SC to spend time with Dave's family.  Grandma and Grandpa are living in Hilton Head for a few months to see if they want to move there (which puts them 3 hours closer to us!).  Hilton Head is beautiful and there is SO much to do.  Our week there started off COLD (Grandma even had to go buy Jack and me a coats because we didn't come prepared!) but ended beautifully.  We filled our time in Hilton Head with relaxation, yummy food, walks on the beach, a little shopping, and family pictures courtesy of master photographer, Grandpa!  We can't wait to go back for another visit!
