Yea!!! Lauren is here!!!

Lauren came to visit everyone for a few weeks (all the way from Seattle). She spent time with Mimi & Papa, Corey & Erin, the Fennessy's, and Rick, Ash & I. We had such a great time with her. We watched movies, went to the arcade at Black Beard's Cove, went shopping, and took the boat out for the afternoon. Lauren, Mimi, and Papa met us at the landing & we headed through the harbor from there. We cruised through to James Island & then over by John's Island, where we found the perfect tubing water. I think Lauren could have stayed out there for days! Mimi & Papa really enjoyed the view. We decided to leave Ash with Poppa Chadwick, as she is a busy bee these days & we wanted to be able to focus some time on Lauren :)
Lauren drove us around for a bit. She did great...we didn't even hit a sand bar!

Mimi and Papa Collette on their first boat ride in the Charleston Harbor...well, with us.

Lauren, Ash & Mommy enjoying watermelon on the back porch after dinner.
Ashlyn did not get to go out in the boat with us, so we let her play in the water when we got back to the house. She was fascinated by the idea of getting soaked while in her clothes and shoes. Who knew that "helping" clean the boat could ever be so much fun!!!
