videoI had decided to record Joshua having a hissy over something Tyler did to upset him. He was crying hysterically, hands on cheeks - as if what Tyler did was 'disastrous.' However, he'd calmed down considerably by the time I got to the camera. But, what's so funny is that he saw - lord only knows what - on TV while I was watching him! His response is cute! But, then again - he's my kid. Anything he does is cute.

Bella Ryn Bryant - I love her name. It's so pretty. She's very happy to be an indoor dog now. She gets lots more attention and loving and fresh water! :)

Shots of the living room/cptr room after painting. It's not as yellow as it appears in the pictures. It's warmer, darker. Almost goldish - but not. :) Then, there's a picture of Bella Ryn. She's gettin' soooooo big! She stays inside now. Her crate is in our bedroom and she does very well.

Scenes from Tyler's trip to Skymont.












Justin and Tyler home from their first day of school. Justin is in middle school and although it's public they have a 'uniform.' I always make cookies for the first day of school, too. I made these from scratch and they were very good.
Then, there was this might wierd bug on the pool wall. Got any clue as to what it is????









Scenes from our weekend with Sky's family. Brandon, Alyssa, Andy, Wendy, & Sharon.















Pebbles listening to Justin practice his trombone. He makes good sounds but occasionally it sounds like he's expelling excess gas!



Joshua at his first baseball practice.










Joshua was all prepared for his shots - or so he thought. Poor baby! He said, "that hurted."

The top pictures was taken at the hospital in Hixson - where we waited 2 hrs in the ER before leaving to go to PM Pediatrics - where we were seen right away. Anyway, Joshua was rough-housing with Justin and his head met the dresser. He had to get two stitches! And, the nurse distracted him while I stood back and snapped away! :)

More playing in the ocean and, um, that crab - he's eating a chicken neck (in case clarification is needed). LOL! The last pic: "Where'd they go?????"


Posted by Picasa
playing in the ocean!


Posted by Picasa
Tyler decided to pet the crab - see his hand. Uhuh. That's what happens when you pet crabs! Tyler in the ocean. Another view of Tyler's new boo boo - and I LOVE that pic of the crab saying, "you want some of this? come on - getchya some."

Heading to the beach! The kids had tons of fun on their boogie boards. A beautiful blue crab. And, another view of our site.

Fishing, fishing, and more fishing!

Views from our campsite. And, three of the blue crab we caught.

Tyler and Joshua playing in the tent. More views of our campsite. The best site in all of Pirateland!


Tyler on his bike. We've got company! Quack, quack. Fishing and more fishing.

Feeding the ducks. A permanant site I really like that was just across the way from us. And, Joshua fishing (for anything that'll bite). :)

Joshua showing off his farmer's tan. Justin. Robbie. And, a cuter pic of Joshua.

More of the water balloon fight. Joshua got so mad that his balloons kept bouncing off the boys. He stiffened his arms and balled his hands up in fists and growled like you wouldn't believe. It was hysterical but bordering on red butt territory. Anyway, more walk along the beach looking for shark's teeth pic's.

Tyler, Justin and Robbie in the lazy river. You can see the enormous pool behind. You walk in at 3 ft deep on either end - with steps all the way across. It's supposed to be 4 ft in the middle but I think it's deeper. Then, there is the water balloon fight.

Water pic! Sky & Joshua on the beach! Joshua at the pool and in the waterfall.

Two pics at Creek Rats in Murrell's Inlet. I love this place - first time I ever had the most delicious FRIED PICKLES!!!! YUM! Then, some inside the car pic's (Robbie kind of has that 'I dare you' look about her).


Posted by Picasa
On the beach again looking for sand diggers - they found a lot. Then, the kids at the arcade.


Posted by Picasa
Ice cream time! Followed by Robbie and the kids on the beach searchng for sand diggers and sharks teeth!

Posted by Picasa
Joshua & Tyler on the playground and Justin outside the arcade/ice cream shoppe.

Demo of a sword fight to advertise that Midevil Times dinner and a show thingy that's close to, if not more, than $40 per person. They are real swords with dulled blades and the swords are 10 lbs. Then, there is Justin on the playground.

Blue crabs. Robbie, Justin, and Tyler on the paddle boats. A little birdie came to visit. And, them on the paddle boats again.


Posted by Picasa
MMmmm! Sky's grillin' some very delicious steaks!!!! Lazy river. Ducks. And, Robbie kayaking.

Me, Sky and the kids in the ocean. It's so much fun getting pounded by a wave! And, it's just as fun to sway over one before it crests. I stepped on a fish once. And, lots of little slimy things would occasionally rub up against me - much like the cats. Fish? Who knows. And, once while I was walking in the very shallow water - something bit me! A crab?? Justin might have gotten 'gently touched' by a jelly, too. The following pic's are scenes from Broadway At The Beach. And, we didn't eat at the Hard Rock Cafe but - I thought it looked cool.


Posted by Picasa
Two pics of me and Sky and two of the kids playing in the sand.


Posted by Picasa
My boys together. Joshua collecting shells. Tyler sitting in the water. And, Joshua trying to lift a heavy chain adorning the restaurant we ate at - Benjamin's right off of Kings Hwy - very good - very expensive.

A pick of the kids and Sky infront of the pier by themselves.


Posted by Picasa
Tyler playing in the sand. It was hot and my camera wasn't acclimated yet. The next two are of the kids playing under the pier. That was really cool. Such and neat view. And one of the underside of the pier - sans kids. :)

Posted by Picasa
Sky helping the kids build a fortress. Had to snap a pic of the flock of tanned guys and then Robbie - "Did you just - you didn't. Sissy!" It was funny but, perhaps you had to be there. And, another pic of the boys planning their fortress.

This is a video - don't know if by doing it this way you'll be able to play it -but - will try.

Me & Sky on our last morning. We had to go and watch the sunrise. It was beautiful. I wish I was still there.
A view of the vegetation at sunrise. The sunrise by itself. And, finally - packing up and heading home.
