Papa and Nana Visit Charleston

Papa & Nana Visit Charleston
20th-25th of September

We had to joke that Aaron had to get a gator tag to get my Dad to come and visit us or for me to be having a baby for my Mom to come. So Nana has been to Charelston 4 times (3 with each child's birth) and Papa's first. We were so excited to have them. Aaron and Dad hunted hard every night and some days, they had lots of sighting and even caught a few just didn't fill the tag because they were hoping for a better one. Aaron has yet to fill his tag and as I'm writing this is out trying to fill it. But they seemed to have a great time on each hunt. 

Cypress Gardens

This is a really neat cypress that has a butterfly house w/ a bee farm, an aquarium, live alligators, birds, boats, trails, an old cemetery, gift shop, etc...









 If you keep a sharp eye you've got a pretty good chance of seeing a live alligator in the wild and we did see a few. 










IOP Beach

They came just in time to catch the end of beach season. It was cloudy but just warm enough to enjoy the water.
 Jordyn my beach babe!
 Mom caught me on camera slippin in  a little workout. I feel like my kids should pull their own weight (hehe)

Before the restaurant Nana and I tag teamed giving Ashes her first hair cut. She has such long hair but only on top and it was always in her pretty little face so we decided we're try to trim it.

What a funny little ponytail! 

 Isn't she a cutie!
 This was at the restaurant, and yes we always recommend this place to visitors, it was so good!

These kids played hard while Nana and Papa where here, to say Jordyn had a melt down while there where here would be an understatment! Luckily it was in the process of putting her to bed.

Trying really had to get these 3 to look and smile at the camera all at the same time...yeah right!
 I love Ashes face in this one. "who put me with these crazies!"
Thanks for making the long drive out to South Carolina! We hope y'all thought it was worth it and we miss y'all already!
