Just Beachin'. Ft Sumter and Charleston

Chad and the boys had never been to Ft Sumter before.  So, Wednesday, my family and PapaHub hopped in the van and went to Charleston.  We took the earliest ferry over to the fort which was a good thing because it was H-O-T.

With Hunter finishing 3rd grade this year, he was very interested in Ft Sumter due to SC history.

If I must say so, another pretty good family pic (besides Shepherd, I swear, this kid either nails a picture or it is just a bomb).  

Chad and his boys

My loves.  Thanks to Sandee and Tom Tom on my cool hat.  :)

LOVE this picture of PapaHub and his grandsons

Ashton taking it all in.

My dates for the day

Two history buffs

"Slide, Slide, Slide" Hard to convince Bennett that this sloping thing beside him was not a slide.

The boys in the ammo place.  Dont you love my history vocabulary?  

Finally, released them to take a silly picture

 The night before, PapaHub and Grandma too the whole crew into Charleston for dinner at Hymans.  It was really good food and there was a lot of laughs.

Turns out, it is hard to get 13 people in the table picture. We didnt realize it until afterward but Joey is hidden.  If you look between Tommy and Ashton, you can see her little hand waving.  Besides that, it is a really good picture.  Look at Bennett's adorable cheezin grin.   

Example 1 of the laughter

Example 3

Example 4-  This is Sandee's duck face... you know the seductive look people like to post on facebook, etc.  haha

Example 5- And of course, Chad gave us his duck face.  Man, I sure lucked out by catching this BIG tuna.  And, love Tommy's expression in the background.  

 The beach week was great.  The kids were all well behaved and so were the adults. :)  

Also, my in-laws celebrated their 40 year anniversary while were at the beach.  Happy Anniversary!  

Thank you Thank you Thank you to PapaHub and Grandma on supplying the beach house and paying for all the Bi-Lo runs during the week.  We love you guys!
