London was making Sydney laugh so hard. I wish I would have had the video earlier because I haven't heard her laugh that hard before.

The Yes Baby
I am convinced that Jim Carey stole our idea. Just think...Sydney could be a movie star and I could be basking in all her money. Too bad we didn't pursue it.
More Vacation
The pictures say it all. We spent our time hanging at the beach watching for dolphins, hunting for seashells, swimming, or playing some sort of golf. We really enjoyed ourselves and were bummed that we had to come home to snow. Brooklyn did not want to put away her spring clothes. She insisted that it was spring because we had spring break and that means warm weather and shorts and tank tops. Now we play the waiting game here in Ohio for Spring. It better come fast or else I will have to take another vacation.
Glad swimming lessons are paying off
Driving to Botany Bay to go seashell hunting.
Tons of crabs along the way.
The Loot
Clam beds
Waiting for Dolphins
Miniature Golfing
Sydney says HI!
Playing under the chair
Pedicures from Bugga
Building Sandcastles
Playing in the sand
Hallelujah! Finally at the Beach.
Alligators in the complex
Golfing
What more could you ask for on a vacation? (Other than it being free.)
We concluded the vacation on Friday by heading to Charleston to the Aquarium. We saw dolphins in the Harbor. Then when we went in we saw a giant sea turtle, sharks, jellyfish, and all sorts of ocean life. It was fun but too expensive for my taste.

Spring Break In South Carolina!!
We had such a great time and got to do many things so I am going to post in smaller sections.
We stayed at Bugga's for a night before we headed to Edisto Island, SC. We rented this condo which was perfect for our family and Bugga. It was on a resort so we were able to use all the resort's activity centers like the pools, miniature golfing, playground, movies, games, and whatever else they offered. When we got there we went to the Piggly Wiggly for groceries and then went to Bugga's good friend's house who fixed us a yummy dinner and we got to enjoy their beautiful home and scenery on the Marsh Lands.
George and Gailya's hospitality didn't end there. Then next afternoon we met them back out at their house so they could take us on a boat ride to see the marsh and the dolphins in the bay. Bugga stayed at the condo with Sydney so we could go. Thanks mom. It was sunny but windy so as we were just about to approach the bay, the waves were getting too big and we were getting all wet so we turned around. We didn't see dolphins, but we saw some really beautiful scenery. Thanks again for a great afternoon.
Greg and I got some golfing, if that is what you call chasing, hunting and losing golf balls, in that morning. It was awful. I haven't played for at least 18 months and boy did it show. My putting game was better than I thought but I couldn't hit worth crap. Greg was doing alright but there were holes that we were even on. That doesn't happen very often. At least we got some sun while we were out.
More to come on the rest of the week later.
North Carolina
We headed out on Friday March 20 and made it to Princeton, WV. We stayed the night, thanks to Grandpa Steve, at the Hampton. The girls and Greg got up the next morning and swam while I tried to sleep a little bit more. Sydney had this awful cough and her bum was so sore that it even started bleeding. Every time she coughed she would poop a little and then she would start crying. It was not a good night's rest for any of us except Brooklyn, who snored through the whole thing. But at least they got to swim before they left! Instead of going through Charlotte, we took a detour to Asheville, NC to see Grandpa Lou and Grandma Carol. We had a great visit. Tracy and Les brought the girls over to play with London and Brooklyn.
Jean watched the all the girls for a bit while we went and looked at grandpa's new house (Sydney got to screaming and poor Jean was probably beside herself-good thing we were minutes away). Carol fixed us a wonderful meal and we stayed up and visited. We went to PF Changs for lunch and then left for Columbia to see Bugga (my mom).
