First Family Beach Trip!!

So on the 25th we trekked down to Myrtle Beach for our first trip as a family! No hurricane was going to scare us away from relaxing. We had an awesome time. On Thursday when we got down there we went and got some family photos taken on the windy beach. I cannot wait to see them! The kids did great during the session.
Went to eat at Hard Rock that night and Dreyden thought it was the coolest thing that we went into a pyramid. And if you know Dreyden you know how much he loves rock n roll! Some of his favorite songs came one while we were there including his favorite Kiss song "Rock and roll alllriighhht" so he says haha.
Friday was a gloomy and rainy day that we made the best of. It was the day the hurricane started to hit. We took a trip to Ripleys Aquarium. Both kids LOVED it. Delaney was wide eyed the whole time and hitting the glass when she got close. Dreyden was amazed at the sharks swimming around us and all the fish.
We spent as much time as we could in the pools at the hotel. But one side was open to outside so if it was really bad outside we had to go to the room. We were supposed to leave Saturday morning but I decided we should stay one more day because it was supposed to get nice.
SO glad we made that decision! We got to go back down to the beach and pick up shells and play in the water. Went to Broadway on the Beach as well for lunch and to ride some of the rides with Dreyden. Delaney enjoyed her first time on a Carousel!
Of course here are some photos from our trip! Cant wait to post the ones from the other photographer. Hopefully I will have them soon.














wow

Im so behind in updating this!!! I still have yet to buy a journal. I need to do that next time Im at walmart. I will get this updated as soon as I can.

Dreyden was begging for one of his danimal drinks so I gave him one. It was the last one and I went to throw the cardboard away. He started yelling "did they win the ultimate playground! Did they win!?" Apparently they are giving away ultimate playgrounds to schools by using codes. He is so silly and obviously watches wayy too much TV!
