Spring Break 2018 - Myrtle Beach...

While we'd had a few nice stops on our trip thus far the main event was getting back to Myrtle Beach so we could visit the Harpers. We hadn't been back to Myrtle since 2015 - we left there just a few days before Harper was born and it's where Harper's early arrival began so we'd admittedly been avoiding going back - but it was time to rip off that band aid! I'm so glad we did because we had such an amazing time being back at Ocean Lakes - and of course being with Don and Mae Mae. 

The weather was finally sunny and warmer so that was a great change. We did everything we could to soak up the sunshine - digging in the sand at our campsite, walking the dogs on the beach, playing at the parks, and even getting some beach time in of our own. 
















We were there just one week before they were going to open the outdoor pool but that didn't stop us from taking a dip in the indoor pool. Harper was loving swimming with his big brother. 



Of course of all those things the highlight was truly getting to spend time with Don and Mae Mae. The kids had a blast hanging out at their house - they got to use the trampoline next door, watch the hummingbirds feed at their kitchen window and run around barefoot in their backyard. While the kids had huge smiles on their faces the entire time I'm not sure there bigger smiles than the ones on Don and Mae Mae's faces - they truly love these boys. 

















It was really a wonderful visit and we'll look forward to going back again soon - the boys will be begging us no doubt. 

Alas it was time to move on to our final destination - Williamsburg...
