Family Myrtle Beach Pictures 2013

I LOVE taking pictures at the beach! There is something serene about the sounds of the ocean waves and the feel of sand in your feet. I LOVE spending QUALITY time with my FAMILY!! Being away from the hustle bustle of life made me put some tings into perspective and I realized the following...I want to start placing a higher priority on spending quality time with my family...traveling...doing activities and adventures...making memories...instead of gathering thing around us. Memories are all we really have in this life. All the material things are temporal and fleeting. I want my kids to remember the fun times and adventures we had as a family. I want my kids to sit up late night after night reminiscing about all the fun times we had. "We will have nothing to show for it, but the invisible bond it created for our FAMILY"!! Sorry for the picture overload. These were some of my Favorite Pictures we took of our FAMILY!!

As we do every time we go to Myrtle Beach, we took Family Pictures. We had a fun time taking them! Here are some of our Favorites!!

Myrtle Beach Summer 2013

This year we took the kids to Myrtle Beach for Summer Vacation. We had lots of fun, Swimming, playing in the Ocean, learning to Body Surf and Boogie Board Thanks to cousin Jason, Building Sand Castles with Jasmine and JJ. and Other Fun Activities!! We went around, and around the "SWIRLEY WIRLEY" as Cole calls it.. aka THE LAZY RIVER!! We spent a lot of time in the pool, splashing, diving, swimming, playing games and having fun with our cousins!! We took the kids to see the Illusions Magic Show. Cole was on the edge of his seat when BEN BLAQUE a finalist from America's Got Talent amazed us with his CrossBow!! Cole said "Mommy can I do that" to which I replied.. "When you are as old as him". So after the show I took Cole up to meet BEN BLAQUE!! We had a fun family vacation, and are looking forward to next summer when we go to Utah!!

FISH, MERMAIDS AND SHARKS! OH MY!!

A trip to Myrtle Beach would not be complete without going to Ripley's Aquarium! We decided to take a break from the water, sand and sun to spend the day at the Aquarium. We saw lots of Fish, Sharks and even 2 Mermaids. They even have a play area for kids. Which includes a rock wall, shark slide, lego table, glowstick lights to play with. It was a nice break from the beach and pool!!
