St. Simons Island 2016

     We took a family beach trip to St. Simons September 7-11th, 2016.  We had the best time and hated to leave!  The kids loved the beach, especially Sumner!  We played in the ocean, built ponds, built sand castles, drew words and the alphabet in the sand, and collected sea shells!  Of course, they loved the pool, too! The kids have both come such a long way with swimming this summer.  So much so, we didn’t even need their puddle jumpers this trip! At night we searched for crabs!  Sumner is a pro at catching them and we nicknamed YaYa the “crab whisperer!”

     We went to the lighthouse on Sunday before we came home.  Sumner loved it.  I think there is an episode on Paw Patrol with a lighthouse, which triggered his interests.  But after seeing if for himself, his interest really grew!  Since we came home, he has built several lighthouses with spare bricks outside, his blocks, and paper.  He and my brother Walter made a pretty detailed one out of paper and he has it hanging in his room! 


     We had a wonderful time! I am so thankful for our family.  I am also thankful that Sumner and Anna Ruth’s grandparents are so involved in their lives and are able to make special memories with them, too.
