fun at the beach.

Other than a few bumps en route to Charleston (meaning: the outer tread on one of our tires blew out a half hour from the beach! Then we got to hang out in Walmart for 3 hours while we waited for them to replace it!), we ended up having an unexpected but enjoyable weekend trip to Folly Beach.

Eli is fearless! As soon as we had the blankets down and the sunscreen on, this little man went charging into the surf. He spent most of the time playing in the waves, and we just about died at how cute his chubby little feet looked in the wet sand.

Gabriel takes a little longer to warm up to new situations, and busied himself with flinging sand (sometimes at unsuspecting strangers) and getting water with Daddy for sand castles! He also took the direction to bury Daddy literally... and immediately went to work burying Ben's head first. Poor Ben.

It wasn't too hot and the beach itself was idyllic- we created some of our best memories today and are so excited to have our third little boy join us in the fun soon!
