Surfside Beach with the Family

At the beginning of June we took a family vacation to the beach with Drew's Dad and his side of the family. We did this last year as well and we had a nice time. It is a great way to connect with our family since we live in another state and seldom have time to see everyone when we are home in Tennessee. The kids love it because they get to spend a whole week with their cousins.

 

We did lots of fun things from hanging out at the beach and the pool, going to Broadway at the Beach, going to a kids carnival and of course lots of eating.

Lucas has been lucky in that the past two years we have been at the beach for his birthday. This year my big boy turned 8 and we let him choose how he wanted to celebrate. He choose his birthday dinner of homemade pizzas and IBC root beer. He also requested we do Tye-Dye shirts for all the cousins and finish off with a water balloon battle. We finished the night off with a yummy ice cream cake.

We love you Lucas and couldn't be more proud of you!
