Tuesday was a great day to sit and relax after hitting the lake. The McArthur’s celebrated their anniversary with joint pedicures and Rick and I played with the kids in the morning. I then escaped with Lisa and Chloe for my own pedi and more girly stuff. We decided to play cards with the kids later and look for more turtles off the back deck. It was a nice easy day. Which was needed because Ken and Rick both got sunburned.
After the kids went to sleep. That is all but Katie believe me we tried. The adults stayed up to play a mean game of Frisbee Golf on the Wii.
Wednesday was a long day. We loaded up the kids and all the stuff and ventured off to Charleston SC for some shopping. We hit some great deals at the outlets and wore all the kids out.
We then headed to Folly Beach SC for a trip to the beach. This was Katie's first trip to a beach. We hit the sand at just the right time. People were headed home for the day so we had a large section of beach all to ourselves. This worked out great with 5 kids running around. Katie loved the water. Once again she had no fear and would run straight for the waves without thinking twice. I was sure she was going to drown.
Rick helped the kids build a sand castle with a moat.
We had a great time with good friends.
A few hours after we reached the beach it started to rain. It was perfect timing because we were loading everything up to head to dinner. We decided to try the Folly Beach Crab Shack, the locals recommended it. After waiting an hour to be seated everyone was tired and hungry. My food was great and Katie ate shrimp, crab, scallops, grilled cheese, french fries, corn on the cob, potatoes and when she was done with her meal, as well as mine, she went over and finished Chloe’s fruit cup. My child never eats that much!

Looks like you had a fun time. I'm sure Katie was in her element with all that water! Fun fun!
She must have ran all her energy out and needed to food. Looks like you guys have had a great trip. And I think when Katie gets older she'll live near the ocean or some sort of large capacity of water. She definitely love the water.
