We began at Summer Conference, one of our favorite times of every year. MG loved opening her door every morning to find her favorite friends ready and waiting to play princesses, while S enjoyed crawling around the courtyard eating as much dirt as he possibly could get his hands on.
We're so thankful for that fun time in Florida!
We are also grateful for our two weeks of vacation that came a week after SC!
Our first week at the beach was wonderful! We got in good runs, morning time on the beach, afternoons at the pool, fun time eating out and exploring, and I even finished two books for the first time in months. We found out that MG is on the way to becoming an excellent swimmer, and S is proficient at eating shells and sand. They both loved the beach! We also loved our time with the Gayles who brought this whole opportunity about. We are so thankful for good rest for our souls!
From the beach, we traveled across the entire state of NC to a wedding in Tennessee. David got to marry our dear friends while MG had her first flower girl experience. She did great walking down the aisle, but her favorite time by far was hanging out with her big girl bridesmaid friends. The photographer got much better pictures of MG in her dress, but here's a snippet of the rehearsal.
After a fun weekend in Knoxville, we traveled to Montreat to spend a week with my family. We got more rest in a beautiful spot while having slow, relaxed time with my parents. MG loved going to club all week, while S held down the fort by playing guitar with Daddy and hamming it up for his G and Pops. MG also got to experience her first Montreat barn dance.
