Schooner Welcome

We got invited to go out on this beautiful sail boat the day after Thanksgiving by the owners, Pamela & Peter Ovens - members of the church. We had a great time and Will even got to steer the boat! He seemed like a natural. This boat is actually for sale (sail?!) for a mere $250,000!! You can buy it on EBAY! It's 62' all wood Concordia yacht - anybody want to buy it?!

The sad part about our trip is that we think we may have lost our camera overboard! Peter gave us a disposible camera to use, so we will have some pictures when we get the film developed. I pulled these shots from their website so you can at least see.

Missed Everyone This Week!

This Thanksgiving was the roughest for us! We missed everyone and wished we were able to be with family and friends. William fully realized the distance and that we won't be able to see everyone as much as we used to. He seemed pretty sad but in a way I am glad to see that because when we left, he was didn't seem to understand or care that we would be so far away. Now he knows and he is appreciative of his family more.

Misses & Kisses!

Yet Another River in Bluffton

We went to the Colleton River today - very pretty, close to us and I had no idea it was there!

Beach Day again

Went for a walk at the beach again today. I wanted to show Will the Horseshoe crabs, but they were all gone! Either people took them, or the birds got them!
Seemed odd to see quite a few people in the water...but the water was warm and Will ended up getting pretty wet and sandy (not laura-y).

A Cold, Foggy Morning

There was lots of frost on the grass this morning when Will went out to get the paper (in Daddy's shoes).

Faces of Missing His Family

Will has really been missing California, his family and friends and most especially, his cousin, Emily. He had been waiting to talk to her and was disappointed when she wasn't there.

Hi Hannah!!!

On The Boardwalk

I enjoy the boardwalk entry to Folly Field Beach Park. It is surrounded by trees, water and, during the summer, the haunting sounds of Cicadas.

Emily and Kelly went to this beach with me when they were here, and I think they enjoyed it very much.
