What we do on summer vacation


Yay! For summer vacation.
We love this time of year because one of the great perks of Mikes job is that he travels. Ok will let me rephrase that. We get to travel with him when he travels during the summer when the kids are out of school. And the company pays for it.
And yes that is a picture of Asher doing cart wheels across the beach flicking sand everywhere. Being the acrobat he is he cant even seem to walk across the sand like everyone else.
a couple of weeks ago we went to Myrtle Beach Sc. for 4 days. While Mike is working during the day the kids and I get to do all the fun stuff like Magi Quest, that is one of their FAVORITE things to do when in Myrtle Beach. They would do it everyday if I let them. We did do it 2 days that week though. It's actually pretty neat. They have magic wands that activate things in the room and saves their game. They are given a quest in the beginning by a computer and then run around this two story building set in the midevel times. It's kinda like a scavenger hunt. Or we will go shopping, to the aquarium, or just lounge on the beach making sand castles, playing in the waves and praying that there are no hungary sharks that day. And then Mike meets up with us in the evening. We usually go to dinner, or swim in the pool. This time he was able to spend a day with us on the beach before heading back home. That was a great treat.

This is the first year that Reagan has been willing to get in the water. Which means mom was able to get in the water. She really enjoyed the waves except when the saltwater would get in her mouth or eyes.
Next week we will be going to Columbia Sc. , Spartanburg Sc , where one of my good friends live so I will be able to visit with her, and then to the beach in Wilmington Nc.
