What a sweet double-dip of a trip we had to Hilton Head Island this past weekend! We got to see my special long-time friend, Lindsay, get married on the beach (which prompted questions that led to a sweet explanation of marriage to Wren) before dancing the night away in celebration. Then we extended our trip to soak up a bit more memory making as a family of three with some simple beach days.
Basically, we played hard and crashed hard. On repeat. Wren LOVED sleeping in her cozy bunk bed, feeding the turtles near the boardwalk on the way to and from the beach, jumping endless waves and building crab houses in the sand with Daddy. And I got the privilege of at least one more tuckered out beach nap snuggled up with my big girl that will somehow always be my baby.
Of course I had to shamelessly tickle and chase in order to snap a few beach pictures, but I want to help us remember. After all, we know a big transition is coming our way. Wren told everyone that she met (which were plenty because....well, she's quite the social creature) that she is going to be a big sister soon and oh how fun it is to see all of her excitement and anticipation and enjoy how it serves to magnify our own.
We'll see you next time, beach. All four of us!
