beach snapshots
Β today i am sharing a few iphone snapshots from our beach trip in south carolina last weekΒ
β¦i will let the photos do the talkingβ¦


our nephew, cameron james, sleepingΒ so peacefully on me under a tent on the beach
i fell so much more in love with this little man last week
he is precious and so good

Β i went to a boutique and consignment shop with my sister-in-law {love spending time with her!}
these little bow ties were to die for!

Β we spent some time on thursday night at a hidden gemΒ
it was tucked away underneath lots of big trees and had a cool, eclectic feel
there was live music- market lights- people enjoying cocktails
itβs simplicity- yet fun- atmosphere reminded me of home so much.Β


Β mr. monaco and his 90 year old grandma



Β her parents were so appreciative of my daily photo sharesΒ
that i took quite a few of her and her brother- plus sheβs so cute.

baby boy loved the beach β 18 weeks


Β yesterday i shared some motherhood inspriations in my life
this amazing mom is another one- she makes it look so effortless and is so graceful
i admire her and just wish we lived closer!

i thought this little tooth fairy {for a boy} was so cute!
there was also one for little girls


Β aunt nellie loves a good snuggleΒ


a delicious dinner at frankβsΒ

i read whereβd you go bernadette on the beach and really enjoyed the humor!

have you read it?

Β mocktail hour


Β βsmell the sea and feel the sky
let your soul and spirit fly.β
Β β van morrisonΒ
hope you are having a great day!
Β what are your favorite things to do at the beach?
Β β¦
as a kid, i loved staying on the beach until late in the evening
{absolutely love it when the sun goes down and the sand becomes cool}
Β walks on the beach at night with my sister
beer butt chicken for dinner
my dad making {virgin and then non-virgin} cocktails and bringing appetizers out to the pool
playing lots of games and having a family puzzleΒ
{we always work on it throughout the week- sometimes late into the night #addicts}
seafood dinners out
watching them make salt water taffey at barefoot landing
putt putt golfingΒ
and most importantly, forgetting all your cares for a week.

check in tomorrow for the winner of my latest giveaway β thanks to the outline apparel company!

You're making me miss the beach awfully! Looks beautiful.
I did read Bernadette, and loved it! The perfect mix of mystery, humor, and realism – it was one of my first blog book reviews way back when!
