Savannah: The Beach

Image
We spent a wonderfully cloudy afternoon rollicking in the waves down at Tybee.  99% of the time, life with the three boys looks pretty much like this… …but occasionally I am able to snag a sweet moment like this… And while it’s pretty much a miracle to have two littles looking at the camera and smiling, it’s actually this one that melts my momma heart… …the two most precious things in the world to me - big brother confidently smiling at the camera and little brother grinning from ear to ear while he adoringly looks up at his favorite person on earth.   As an early evening storm rolled in, we wrapped up our day with our regular Monday visit to Tybee Social for fish tacos and margaritas.  The babies dined at their very own table (which was more a treat for us than them in many ways) and the PCP was introduced to the Mrs Pac Man / Galaga table game (identical to the very one we used to play on Friday nights at the Pizza Inn about thirty years ago.)

The Good, The Bad & The Ugly

Hi everyone.   We made it home from Florida late last night, exhausted and happy to be home.  The trip was really fun, even though there were a few little bleeps along the way.  Today I will share the Good times with you and save the Bad & Ugly for another post. The Good... View from our condo balcony in Destin. Two and a half weeks with our grandson Aden. Fun at the beach with four of our grand kids. Precious time with dad. Spending time with Hubby in Saint Augustine... and in Savannah. I hope you are having a wonderful Summer!   I'll be back later to share more vacation details and announce the winner of the Cutting Edge Giveaway.  Thanks for visiting. xo, Sherry  I'll be partying at : Savvy Southern Style 2805

And my bathroom like this...…. I simply love a beautiful white bathroom.  This one has been a long t
