House Full of Fun

Last week we spent an amazing five days in Kiawah Island, SC with some of our best friends and their children. This has become an annual trip for us, but this year was a little more crazy than usual. Ten adults and eight kids (four toddlers, four infants) and somehow we still managed to have a great time! Ainsley loved playing at the beach and swimming in the pool with her friends Whitney and Timmy. Parker enjoyed... well, he slept a lot, as usual. But he did have fun watching all the other kids and liked chillin' in the pool with Mommy.

Ainsley found some sea shells and a starfish (which she excitedly showed to all her friends at home). Luckily she inherited her Nana's skin - she tans easily and never burns! She is getting more comfortable with her swimming skills and enjoyed swim races in the pool with Timmy and Whitney.  Her favorite game was getting on the raft and escaping the "alligators" (dads in the pool).  A favorite memory is watching the naked kids sitting around the kitchen table, eating lunch and drying off after some morning fun in the pool. 

After the kids went to bed each night, the adults enjoyed some wine in the hot tub, watching the stars, listening to the ocean, and catching up on life.  We are so blessed to have such wonderful friends! Special thanks to the O'Neills (and Ashbaughs) for allowing us to enjoy their beautiful home.
