So, we've been home from the beach for six days and I'm finally posting some pictures. Somehow, I've never had as much difficulty readjusting after a vacation but the laundry is finished now and there's just a few more things to put away.
We spent last week in Folly Beach, SC with Ryan's family and extended family. We went into Charleston a few times and did a lot of relaxing at the beach. Elle especially enjoyed playing in the sand and water, riding the slide at the water park, a horse and carriage ride, her bed on the floor, and playing with her castle toy wherever she went. Elle also learned how to fly a kite for the first time.
Elle has her toys and chips. All set for the beach.
