Beach Fun - Hilton Head Island

We just got back from a week at Hilton Head with some friends/family.  We went with Mitch's cousins the Greers, and our friends the Todds.  We had a total of 6 adults and 6 kids.  The kids ranged from 5 to 19 months, so it was chaos at times, but we had tons of fun.  The weather was perfect all week, and the kids all got along great.  I wanted to share some a lot of our week in photos for you.  Enjoy.  :)

We had a blast each day at the beach.

Ansley absolutely loved the ocean.

Sweet Ellis was such a big help all week.

Sweet friends.

Ross and Ansley enjoying a snack together.

Kate was so sweet to share her snack with Ansley.  We were riding around looking at the boats at Shelter Cove.

Three great dads, plus one twin.  :)

Ross LOVED jumping in the water.

We enjoyed a few golf cart rides to this large grassy area where the kids would run and get their energy out!
We visited this area almost every evening.

The best we could do with a group pic!

We even got brave one night and decided to go out to eat.  We went to the Crazy Crab in Harbour Town with our CRAZY CREW!  We chalked it up as a disaster and loss after the night.  After all of us ended up getting up about 3 times with our kiddos, we decided to do take-out the rest of the week.  :)  It was a good try though!

After our outing, we decided to stop for ice cream on the way home.

We ventured back to the beach, and daddy took the camera for a little while so mommy could prove she was on the trip.  :)

We found a great park on our golf ride too, and the kids loved playing on the nice playground.

The boys had a golf outing on Thursday, and we knew we had to get out of the house while they were gone. We knew the three of us ladies couldn't handle all 6 kids at the beach or pool alone, and we would all go crazy in the house.  We found this neat Children's Museum called, The Sandbox.  Everything was kid friendly and they could touch anything.  They had different rooms set up for different learning experiences.  It was a great morning at The Sandbox.

Friday was our last day on the beach.  We enjoyed one more day of fun in the ocean.

Trying to throw the football and play with babies.

 This was actually our second beach trip together with the three families.  However, the first beach trip happened back in 2007 before any kids.  Needless to say, this was a tad different, but we had a blast.  We're already planning and looking into the Greer-Greer-Todd beach trip of 2014!  :)
