A Cousin Visit and Camping

Val and Jasper came to visit for a whole week! We had a blast!
We took the boys to the SC Strawberry Festival down the street form our house...lots of fun things to look at. They were both still asking to go back days later :)

The we drove down to Hunting Island SC to go camping. We pretty much just walked on the beach for a few days :)


 Nathan and Jasper played so well together...it was really nice!

 We convinced Jasper to have some strawberries left over from the festival. It's hard to pass up juicy cold berries on a hot beach!
 Nathan decked out in his sun gear
 Beach bunny parade :)

 These two just had soooo much fun!
 Nathan gets up (way too) early every day, so we hopped on the bike and did some exploring
Our sweet ride


 The kids went swimming in a lagoon while Allan fished (well they started out fishing but it was pretty hot...and it doesn't take much for dipping your feet in the water to turn into this)
 Val being attacked by crabs
 One S-O-G-G-Y diaper!

 Best pals
 Trying to lift a heavy rock
 Racoons ate our food. Again. We really need to be better about this...
 He says it's a moose
 On the way home we stopped at a nice riverfront park in Beaufort SC. The boys got to play on the playground and have ice cream.
 From this picture you can pretend Jasper ate all his.
 Nathan looooved his! He had to get Superman just like Jasper ;)
 His poop was blue for days (TMI...I know)
 And Allan caught a shark!

 On the way home we stopped at these cool church ruins


All and all...an awesome trip! So glad Val was able to come down to visit. We had suck a great time!
