May 29 - june 4

This year we are taking our summer vacation to Hilton Head. We decided to leave after campmeeting clean up and drive all night. Greg got home around 10:30pm and I had the car all packed...so by 11 we were all in the car and off we went. The kids started out watching a movie, then within the hour or so fell asleep as did I. Around 3am I woke up and saw the gas light on and we had 12 miles till empty...when we drove 12 miles and didn't see a gas station in site...I was starting to panic...or course by this time the kids are awake and talking, making me even more nervous...about 5 miles later we pull into a gas station...and it is CLOSED...what?!? Why would it be closed...luckly a mile down the street we found one open...filled up...and made it to the house we rented by 430 am.

Day 1 (Sunday)

Got up and went to the beach. I didn't realize how many sand dollars there are at this beach...they are all over in the water. Mainly swam all day today.

Day 2 (Monday)

Went out to the beach again this morning to swim. Today we found lots of starfish and sand dollars. The boys rented bikes for an hour, but got sick of them after 30mins :)Went to the outlet malls and bought peyton a really beautiful dress at white/black market. Around midnight Peyton decided to dye her hair blue...she accidently dropped the bottle of blue hair dye and it stained the cabinets and floor...it was everywhere...Of course nothing was open at midnight so finally Greg found some comet at a gas station...after an hour of scrubbing...we got it pretty clean.

Day 3 (Tuesday)

Jordan woke me up at 9am wanting to go running on the beach. So I got up and got dressed...we did more walking the running...but at least we got some exercise
