my groovy extended family!!


my sister, Christie (on left) bought these hilarious moustaches
just for FUN and we had a blast with them!!

 Maddie and my sister, Holly (looked like twins from the back
with all that hair and Holly is tiny like Maddie~)

Mike and his daughter, Lucie

 Me and my youngest sister, Gemini twin, Emily
(our birthdays are one day [plus one decade] apart)



Holly and girls, Scarlett Mame and Elliott Jane :)

 3 generations of lovely ladies!!

and these cuties are my sis-in-law, Lindsey, Christie, me, and Holly (seated)

Erin (sis-in-law) and Mike with Jonah and yawning Lucie...


 Daily beach game: Baci ball; very fun!

 Emily and Jonah "punching" the waves -- he is ALL boy!

 Look, mom, no hands!!
Nick (*and all of us*) LOVE to boogie board!
Thanks to the Michaelsons (BYU friends in SC) who loaned us all theirs!!!

 Beach biking--and on the many paths--for miles
This is a fav fav favorite pasttime while in Kiawah



My bro, Mac and kids in tow...
and he and his wife, Lindsey.
He is a dermatologist and was razzing Ted about his "lobster" skin (Ted never wears sunblock and turns deep, lobster red, but feels no pain; thus, no sunblock)


Great shot of my bro, Mike, with his son, Jonah, riding the boogie board (alongside Nick) all the way in. Now that takes talent! :)

 Our view from the back porch...
too bad it's not that breath-taking...
 The walk to the pool from our (rental) house (Nick and cousin, Ellie)

We are a happy, sun-drenched family!

just relived all the memories - awesome trip. I still crack a smile when I think of that freaky turkey call...
