We had a great end of summer trip to the Isle of Palms. Somehow we missed the hurricane hoopla and had incredible weather. We were joined by my in-laws. My sister in law is also pregnant and her baby is due in November. We compared our baby bumps! 
The kids loved riding the waves in on a float and also learning how to body surf. The beach was full of shells and we gathered quite a collection. Joann would feel with her toes for an interesting shaped shell and Ryan would dive down with his goggles to retrieve the treasure. I spent my beach time mostly in one of those low surf chairs right on the edge of the tides. It was so relaxing!
In the evenings after dinner we played the new Wii game that Jake recieved for his birthday. 'Boom Blox' was fun for everyone. It really is one of those games that all ages can enjoy. Nancy and I went to bed pretty early most nights and I was able to get lots of sleep that week.
The kids made up 'surfer' names for us too. Jake=Tidepool, Ryan=Shellscanner, Luke=Whirlpool, Laine=Sugarwave, MC=Sandscooter, Dad=Thundercrest, Jojo=Palmbunny, Mom=Surfsitter!
