Last Thursday, Marty, Lily Grace and I left that afternoon to meet Grandmama and Granddaddy at the beach. We were really excited to get away for a few days and spend some time with them! We got down there around supper time and ate a quick bite then headed out to the beach. Lily Grace was excited about the beach and water instantly. She would ask the water in come back and to go away. She would love for the water to come over her feet but then when the water would go away, I think she felt like she was about to fall. It was pretty funny to watch her expressions. I think she really enjoys the beach more each time we go and especially the pool!

The next morning playing in the sand with Granddaddy 
After spending some time out on the beach we headed to the pool. She loves to relax on floats.
That night after a yummy dinner at The Oyster House, we took a nighttime swim.
Lily Grace loves when her Daddy throws her way up in the air!
I loved her expressions when she landed in his arms.
How sweet!
Lily Grace liked to "swim like a fish" as she would say. On the first day you would really have to hold her tight but then she got braver and braver letting you just put one hand under her belly.
Relaxing in her float Grandmama got for her.
We had lots of birds outside our condo. So Saturday morning we had a couple of biscuits left and Lily Grace and I fed them. There would be tons of them flying up to you wanting you to throw them food. Lily Grace loved it.
Lily Grace kept asking to go way out in the ocean but really only wanted me to hold her. It scares me to go too far out and my balance isn't the best now a days so I wouldn't take her out as far as she wanted. So we went to get a boat. She loved the boat in the room!
Pretending to sleep in her boat.
Lily Grace, her Daddy and her lizards, no it's not a real one!
Out in our boat. She sat in for a little bit but then something spooked her and she wasn't as crazy about it anymore. She had more fun with it in the room!
It looks like we are way out there in this picture!
We headed back to the pool. She loves being in the water. She got to where she would "jump in" off the steps and side. She really didn't jump far but you can see here what she was doing. She thought she was so big though!
Saturday night we went to the Wharf for dinner and little walking and shopping. We ate at Guy Harvey's and then looked at all the big boats out back. Lily Grace looked so cute in her little dress MawMaw Billie Jean made her. I just had to put it on here.
Our family beach pictures 
Sunday morning we hated to leave because we had so much fun! We headed to church and afterwards we ate at Lamberts. Yummy!
The waitress gave Lily Grace a balloon. Looks like she is getting tired.
Getting a little more tired.
And she is gone! I would love to say she slept almost the whole way home but nope, just thirty minutes. She also only slept thirty minutes on the way down to the beach. But we can not complain because she was great the entire time both ways! We are so lucky to have such a good little traveler!
Thank you Grandmama and Granddaddy for inviting us along for your beach trip. We enjoyed our first trip with you guys and hope it is not the last! We had a blast and look forward to another trip hopefully next year. We love you both! Thank you for everything!Tuesday, July 21, 2009
Monday night Marty took Lily Grace down to Grandmama and Granddaddy's house for dinner and to play. I hated to miss out on this time! I also love being down there. So Marty took these pictures and told me all about them. It looks like she had a really good time, just like she always does down there.
Lily Grace loves to play in water. Marty said she had to get as close as she could to this.
Fishing with Granddaddy
Petting Stormy with Granddaddy. Marty said she wanted to ride him and when they started to put her on, she got scared and didn't get up there. That would have been a good picture!!
Petting Stormy with Grandmama
Lily Grace loves to play with Grandmama' cat.
Lily Grace has gotten to where she pretends to fish in whatever water she finds, the pool, the bathtub, and even a bowl of water!
She wanted to climb the tree!
Grandmama helped her get up there
Marty said she really liked chasing the cat!
Lily Grace LOVES blueberries. Her and Pop goes down to the blueberry bushes every time she visits and they pick blueberries and eat them until she is finally full. Sunday after lunch Pop surprised Lily Grace with this big bowl of blueberries he picked just for her to take him. This is only a few of the abundance of blueberries Pop has. She was so excited! She didn't want to share with anyone!
Some of her funny faces
What is it? See no evil....
....hear no evil.....
....speak no evil.
She really enjoys shooting the rocket balloons!
She found the ladder!!! She went straight to the top all by herself!
She loves to have Grandmommy read to her and this is her favorite book, "Have you seen my cat?" She asks for it every time we are up there.
After nap time, we were walking down the stairs and smelt watermelon!! They had just cut it open and it was the first out of Granddaddy's garden. Lily Grace ate more than any of us did! It was so good! One of the best memories of summertime :)
