Our Trip to South Carolina

This is going to be long blog... so get comfy.

The flight was fine I guess. No stop, straight to Charlotte from SLC. BUT... we had to dodge bad storms, so we zigzagged down to Texas and back up, causing us to be close to 2 hours later than arrival. But, needless to say, we got there safely. We had to wait about an hour in line for our rental car, ends up we get a ford focus, ha, but it was new and way nice. We got home in Central about 4:00 a.m.

SO...

Friday- Friday morning we got up and went to see Jack, Jen, Kathryn, and Anna! We visited for a bit and then took Kathryn to Build A Bear. We had lunch at Zaxby's, my all time fave place (they don't have it out west). Kit Kat did so well building her stuffed animal, she participated, and it made it so much more fun. She got a dinosaur and named it Miss Dinosaur. We picked out a fairy outfit, panties, a night night shirt, bunny slippers, and a small sister dinosaur for Anna Belle to match Kathryn and Miss Dinosaur. Kathryn talked non stop to Jeff on the way back from Greenville. After I put Kathryn down for a nap, I played with Anna and then we headed off to Nana's. Bean met us there. We hung out for a bit, and chatted. Also did a crossword puzzle. Loved it. Not gonna lie, i can't remember what we did the rest of that night. I know we came back to Nana's for a bit though, then headed home cause we were drained.

Saturday- We got up and got ready for Bean's graduation. We picked up Nana, and went. Afterwards, we headed to Judge Keller's and stocked up on Clemson gear. The headed to Uncle Jim's house for a cookout. I love when we get all of the family over there together. We have the best time together. We hung out for a good while, then later that night, Brown, Me, Jeff, Bean, and Jare went over to Brown's pool, and just had an amazing time goofing off there. We headed home, and knocked out. Tirrrrrred.

Sunday- Got up and went to church. I was excited, I LOVE my home ward, and didn't get to say goodbye, so reuniting was awesome. They all warned Jeff, and told him he'd better take care of me. They all loved him. Who couldn't love him?! Nana made black bean chilli for dinner. Everyone came over to Mom's house. It was amazing!! We just hung out with the family. Mom, Jeff, Bean and I played Scatergories.

Monday- Dentist apoointment, then Jeff, Bean, Cairine, and I went to Six Flags. Sweltering but amazingly fun, then dinner to O'Charley's (I miss that place!- also not out west ).

Tuesday- Got my top wisdom teeth out, then headed to Surfside Myrtle Beach.

What can I say, it was Mrytle Beach! I got to see Dad and Mama Kathy... not to mention... THE OCEAN! Jeff and I skim boarded, boogie boarded, had lunch on a beachfront cafe (The Conch), ice cream on the pier, played at the arcade on the pier, played 18 holes of put put (which I destroyed him at), went to Legends in Concert, an dthe best seafood place ever... SARA J'S...

When we got back home, we had a nice big southern dinner, then Saturday we visited my grandma's sister, Aunt Anne, and my most amazing cousin whom I love more than anything... Ameliah, I wanted to bust in tears I was so happy to see her. I miss her so much, it kills.

We left my house Sunday morning, 3 a.m. to go to the airport and come back to the bustling SLC. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm kinda glad to be back, I really missed my friends here. Ashlee, Mickie, Kayti, the boys, all of em. Glad to be back, but miss the south like crazy.

much love to all.
