Last week my parents brought our family together in Kiawah Island for vacation. We had a really great time, blessed with fabulous weather, and surrounded by God's beautiful handiwork.
Friday started off with a morning tour down the Stono River in kayaks and ended with Steph and Danny stuck in the mud, probably the funniest part of the trip. We stopped to get fresh produce and seafood on the way home. After a few hours on the beach we started preparing our delicious feast and ended the night with board games.
We spent the rest of the weekend riding bicycles around the island, reading and relaxing in the sun. Sunday we shook off the rust and went out for a friendly game of tennis. The court had a big sign which read "World's #1 Tennis Resort"...we had to laugh at how out of place we must have looked in our t-shirts and running shoes. We toured the other part of the island before dinner Sunday, saw some really gorgeous homes and ate at The Ryder Cup on the prestigious Ocean Course, site of the 2012 PGA Championship.
It was hard to leave Monday morning, saying goodbye to my parents and sister until Christmas. Danny & I could have easily stayed in at the beach for another several days. Everything about it was ideal and I will put Kiawah Island on our list of places to return; it truly was the perfect long weekend getaway.
