Fridays Final Thoughts 9-30-11...Hilton Head Beach Vacation..Chillin on a boat.



FRIDAYS FINAL THOUGHTS

Today as I end up Hilton Head Beach Vacation 2011 my thoughts are about being on a boat.  I love boats. I don't get sick, they are relaxing, calming, you can see so much.  So today you will get to see some pics of us while we were on the boat that took us on the dolphin tour.

Lollipops for everyone

The one who had to have many lollipops

Leaving the docks

Looking off into the unknown

ok, not the unknown, but the lighthouse

We had our own section of the boat.

That's how we roll, or float

C1 looking out at the dolphins

C3 wondering if she can escape

Wasn't sick, maybe tired. I told you boats are relaxing

Now looking into the unknown

C4 had to be at the front of the boat the whole time

Give mommy a smile

Now you give mommy a smile

My two awesome girls

The wind in their hair

And capri suns

Make them feel good

C3

T, looks good on a boat. Maybe in our future?

Looking natural, future deckhands

More lollipops

Me, T, the 4 C's, a boat, capri suns and lollipops...

That was all that was needed to have fun on the adventure.

Kiss the Baby

Hilton Head, S.C. Beach Vacation 2011...Our attempt at some Family Pictures

Ready for more Hilton Head Beach Vacation pictures?

No!? Too bad.

Well as you parents know, it is not easy getting your kids to take pictures. I think it becomes harder when you have four.  One doesn't want to take them, one is out of control, "I don't want to stand next to her", we hear it all. But what more beautiful place to take family pictures than the beach.

So here is our attempt at our

FAMILY PICTURES

2011

HILTON HEAD BEACH, SC.

On the boardwalk to the beach.

Look at them so sweet and getting along so nicely

ummm, C4 can you get up here

Ok, C4 now turn and look at mommy

No, C4 up and look at mommy

Ok, C4 where did you go?

Me and my princess

So how do T and I get a picture of ourselves together?

We let C1 take control of the camera.

Ok, this is a mommy and daddy picture

I love this woman

That's what Im talking about

My turn behind the camera.

Where is C4...AGAIN

Ok, now all of us are here

C2

The one that doesn't like to have his picture taken.

C4

The one you have to catch when he isn't looking

C3

Oh my god. The one who is growing up too fast.

C1

The one that is 8 and almost as tall as his mommy already.

Just a taste of the family.

Kiss the baby

Hilton Head, S.C. Beach Vacation 2011...Taking in some of nature

One of the things that T and I talked about on the way home from Hilton Head was how natural it was. So much of Hilton Head is filled with nature. I think the guy on my fishing charter told me Hilton Head had only one man made port.  It was so beautiful. Very clean. We love nature.  Here are some pictures from vacation of the nature we took in..

We saw this wash up on the beach

T picked it up to show the kids

Here get closer so you can see better

So the kids get closer

You touch it, see how it feels

Hold it C3

What do you think?

Here C4 your turn

We saw this too, no touchy touchy

We got both sea creatures back into the Ocean

Watching the birds was an awesome sight

Flying, Diving, Eating

Looking for more

C4 loved to chase these little guys

Never got one, they were fast

We also went to the Coastal Discovery Museum.

This place was great, free to the public all they asked

for was a donation.

Before we got started on the tour, we thought we would

try to take a family picture.

After about 20 tries we got one.

We observed nature

Checked out the Bee House

Did some walking

Walked a little more

We have one that is kind of a slow poke

T is carrying him in the background

Stopped to rest for a minute

Who is ready to leave and go on the Dolphin Tour?

I think they are ready

Saw this friend on the way out to see some Dolphins

There they are. See them in the middle left of the photo

There is another one. See the fin.

Seeing the Dolphins was beautiful and amazing. It was neat to see them and how they stayed in pairs or threesomes. Never saw one by itself.  C3 kept calling the Dolphins..Whales. It was cute when she would say that. C4 loved being on the boat so much he wouldn't sit still, kind of scary.

But it was a great time and we loved doing it.

I am glad that we got to see some of the wonderful nature while at Hilton Head and it pleases me even more that the kids get into it.

Still more pictures to come.

Kiss the baby
