Pictures at Sunset

Ahh, but of course we wanted to take the quintessential family beach pictures. The beach is the perfect place for beautiful pictures, and sunset or sunrise is the best time to get amazing lighting. Our wonderful friend Kristen Pearson took these pictures for us at sunset. She did and amazing job. Thanks Kristen!

Sand Castles and Ocean Waves

On our first day at the beach, Emma Caroline enjoyed building her first sand castle and Sophie loved playing in the sand, even giving it a little taste just for good measure. The ocean waves, on the other hand, did not bring the same enthusiasm as the sand. Sophie did NOT like those white crashing waves and let her Mommy know that she was not in the least bit pleased. Today has been a little overcast with some sun. This morning we hit the beach again and we are now enjoying a little sunnier weather in in the pool. As our adventures continue, we'll post more pictures.

Hilton Head

We arrived at Hilton Head Island yesterday afternoon. After unpacking, playing in the pool and eating seafood for dinner, the girls settled into bed and Howie and I sat down with a collective sigh. We were exhausted! Today, we set out for the beach! It has been a very overcast day, but great for the girls' first ever day at the beach . We are having a great time so far, and will post more pictures as the week progresses.
