Myrtle Beach

On June 3, we headed to Myrtle Beach and returned home on June 10.  What a wonderful week!  Papaw and Mamaw Leffew came by airplane and we got the pleasure of picking them up.  The kids had signs made for them, it was so cute!!  We also got the pleasure of spending the week with Uncle Wade, Aunt Pam, Jenna, Allison and their friend Madison.  Keira and Brock love the girls, who are 19 and 17.  Keira thinks she is just as old as them. Always amazes me how she will do whatever the girls ask her, like her hair, eating, etc.  Always a struggle with me when it comes to certain things.  We couldn't ask for better role models than Jenna and Allison for our kids.  We stayed in North Myrtle Beach and have fallen in love with the place we stayed. Destin has been our favorite beach the past few yrs, but this may have changed.  We will visit Destin soon, and then decide. Ha!!  This year it has been nice that the kids can swim on their own and we can kick back a little.  They love the water and Keira just amazes me how how well she is swimming w/o assistance. Brock has to use arm wings or other devices, but is doing better.  We ate great dinners each night and went to a brazilian steakhouse, our first time.  Absolutely wonderful!!  Better have a big appetite for it. We played putt-putt twice.  Our kids are competitive, not sure who they get that from.  Ok, maybe me :)  The kids rode some rides, did the jumping thing, rode a camel, face painting, and on and on.  We had great weather and just perfect days.  Loved our family time and wished it could have lasted longer.  Something about being at the beach makes all the "stuff" going on in our lives disappear, if only for a short time.  As much as we enjoy vacation, it was nice to come home to our own beds and cozy little home.  I want bore you with anymore details.  I love my family!!
