Escape

Hey guys!
Hope everyone had a Happy Easter!

T and I headed to the beach with my parents for a little break and enjoyed every minute of our mini-vacation!  We had a great time in Hilton Head - is it just me or is this place super relaxing?


It was perfect weather - not too hot, but not too cold
excellent morning walk weather!


There were dozens of these jellyfish on the beach, which we managed to avoid - I wasn't sure if a dead jellyfish could still sting, and I didn't want to find out.  Ugh.  I hate those things.


I also realized while putting on my bathing suit I may have a slight problem...called hips

I wear small top...


and a large bottom...
ugh.


oh well...

I decided to wash away my sorrows with a daily afternoon cocktail at the pool bar - at $10 a pop I didnt get to indulge too much!  

 

For dinner one night we headed to Boathouse restaurant, which I would highly recommended!  We had to wait an hour, but the scenery was beautiful so we didn't mind too much.  I even managed to shoot a few pictures with my "good camera"...


Dad and T checking out the boats



Such a pretty afternoon on the water - I wish we could have taken that boat for a spin!  Reminds me of living in Savannah!




Glorious!






See I told you it was peaceful there!


My squinty parents!
I was so glad they let us tag along on there vaca





Dad studying the menu!
It was a tough decision obviously


These people were sitting next to us - and of course being a Bulldawg fan I had to snap a picture of their precious dog.  I emailed them these pics because it was just too cute.  Those dogs just have a personality of their own - I love it!



Watching the pup play


T and I managed to take one picture together!


All and all it was a relaxing time and we were so thankful for a little break from reality!
Hope your Easter was wonderful as well!

PS.

So excited for Bubba Watson!  The former Bulldawg who just won the Masters!  His wife played basketball at UGA and according to my parents, who are big supporters of that program, she is super sweet.  She and Bubba just adopted a baby boy, too!  What a wonderful Easter for that family!
Go Dawgs and Bubba!

Quack!

Happy Easter!
The Easter bunny brought my Mom some Easter ducks!

And
they are the cutest things I have ever seen!
Ever, Ever


They are Pekin ducks, like the Aflac duck, and will eventually turn white
Mom has been wanting some ducks for awhile now
We have a pond behind our house that will be their new home once they get a bit older


They love to stick together
And they will follow you around like you are their Mama Duck

The only problem is this little guy...


He seems a little too interested in his new siblings!
Don't worry though, they are being kept at a safe distance!
Come here my pretties!
HELP!!!

After church, we decided to all pose for our Easter picture
How many people does it take to pose a dog?

Eventually, we got it right!
Isn't she a happy puppy?


Then it was time to eat
rather to stuff ourselves!
T ate till he was sick

After lunch the ducks went for a quick dip in the hot tub!


They love to stand on the ledge and then hop back into the pool

After a wonderful Easter visit with my parents and brother (who just got a job and is graduating next weekend - yay!), we headed back to the lake

T has some left over worms and decided to throw a line in



Hope everyone had a great Easter!
It has truly been a special one for us!

Imaginary Easter

In my Easter basket 
(which I'd like to be monogrammed and pottery barn - yes, just like a 5 year old)

I would like ...

a german shepherd puppy


but
 I'll settle for a couple of these


What do you want in your Easter basket?

HAPPY EASTER!
