Back when we lived together we had Michael Dancen Jacks parties, read Harry Potter on the roof, ate ice cream with a spoon in each hand and learned who we really were.
The last time we were all together was over 7 years ago. We’ve had relocations, jobs come and go, 8 kids, and when we get together we pretty much look and act the same as we did before all that.
We planned this trip for years, and we started it with a prayer, a short road trip to Charleston, and some pretty smash-bang barbeque Nachos from Home Team BBQ on Sullivan’s Island.
We took a short walk to Sullivan’s beach and got excited about the local plant life.
We promptly took off our shoes…
…and like the good tourists that we are, asked someone to take our picture.
We then proceeded to be really cool.
We checked in to our Inn and proceeded to be really cool again:
Then we were off around the city. We found a large horse that wanted to eat my head, so Hannah fed it something else. (Note: It didn’t really eat my head.)
We found fantastically gorgeous alleyways.
And we found some fancy chocolates made by hand by a man named Christophe Paume.
Then we went window shopping on King’s Street.
We found this quote along the way and were really inspired. I mean, Stephen R. Covey is an inspiring guy.
That is to say, it inspired to indulge on the ice-cream we were all imagining in our faces. Yes, true, we’ve had ice-cream in our history, but not in our Charleston history.
We sat under this tree and ate and chatted and it was great.
I’ll show you what we did tomorrow, tomorrow.

I love this so so much. I keep trying to write a blog post about it, but I don't have the pictures or the words! Thanks for capturing it for me, friend. LOVE YOU. Can't wait to see the rest of the documentation.
Nice video! What a great first day! (And thank you for taking pictures.)
