Isle of Palms Trip 2011
I am so very behind on blogging and am going to make an attempt to catch up. We'll see how this goes! These are from awhile back but I'm going to try to go in order...
The first week of October we took what has become our annual trip with Geoff's family to the Isle of Palms. We had a great week there with beautiful weather and lots of fun! Uncle Pete came for the 1st half of the week and Quinn and Riley just loved having him around, as well as Grammie and Pop. We love going in October, it's not crowded, and the weather is beautiful. It was a little chilly at the beginning of the week so we went into downtown Charleston, explored Boone Hall Pumpkin Patch, and played at the Palmetto Islands State Park playground. As the week warmed up it was perfect for spending days on the beach, without getting too hot!
Quinn loved the beach, playing in the sand, and the water. Riley was a different story, at least at the beginning of the week. She didn't like the sand on her feet, we had to force her to walk on it. She didn't care much for the waves and water at first either. However, by the end of the week she was playing in the sand and telling us she wanted to go walk in the water and let the water tickle her toes. She would walk and say "I like it, I like it" I guess convincing herself that she did in fact like it! We had great family time and enjoyed such a relaxing vacation!
