We were very excited and fortunate to take a spontaneous trip to the beach this past week. We spent a week in Isle of Palms (just north of Charleston). The weather was perfect, the girls had a great time on the beach, and we had lots of good family time.

We were very fortunate to have a public park right next to our condo.

Our first trip to the beach. Addison immediately loved it but Harper was not fond of the water moving back and forth across her feet. She warmed up by the last day but she preferred playing in the sand or in the "pool" Matt would make near the water.

These pictures are from our trolley ride and trip to the Charleston Aquarium. Matt and I realized how much Addison is growing up when she asked a question (on a microphone) in a group about fifty people during the dive show at the deep sea tank.
