Myrtle Beach

Myrtle Beach conjures up so many memories for Nathan and I... it was where we were when Nathan proposed to me and it was a place we got away to several times each year while we lived on the East Coast. So it was fun to take our kids to see this place we love so much. We had perfect weather and since it was in September, we also avoided all of the beach crowd. It was like we had the place to ourselves.

Our favorite thing to do in Myrtle Beach was just to hang out at the beach. Micah was so excited he went hopping across the sand to the ocean.

Ashlyn enjoyed the freedom of walking along the beach

Showing off his big guns!

It wasn't until we got into the water that I remembered why I love the Atlantic Ocean so much... it is way warmer than the Pacific Ocean (which I refuse to immerse myself in). So we all had a blast one day playing in the water and riding along the big swells that come up to the shore. Not exactly good for surfing, but just right for a family day at the beach.

Time to get out the sand tools and get building...

Ashlyn wants to help too

Tada! The finished product! So sad that it only lasted about 15 minutes after this picture was taken because the tide came in and washed it all away.

We also had a great time at the resort we stayed at. Not too many pictures though, but here are a few of the boys floating in the lazy river at night time.

You can't go to Myrtle Beach and not go miniature golfing since it is the mini golf capital of the world! So we spent one evening testing our golfing skills.

Micah loves to golf and he did a great job too!

Ashlyn also got in on the action with her own little golf club
