6 years and 2 beautiful boys later...life couldn't be better!

 This past weekend Greg and I celebrated 6 years of wedded bliss! My how things have changed over those 6 years! We went from resident/fellow living in a modern condo in downtown Decatur to 2 physicians with 2 beautiful boys and a massive dog in suburbia! Since we were married in Charleston, we have celebrated every anniversary by returning there and this year was no different. We packed up the kids and headed to Kiawah for a little R&R. We drove down on Thursday night and were able to stay through Monday. On Saturday, Greg and I headed downtown to the Planter's Inn for a romantic night away. We had a wonderful dinner and got in some quality shopping! Thank you Noni and Granddaddy for helping us celebrate 6 wonderful years! The first picture is Jackson playing his favorite game...fight! He will a weapon out of pretty much anything and Noni's house had wonderful spatulas that made the perfect light sabers! Jackson even had one of Noni's old purses that he called his "satchel" that stored his weapons perfectly!
 Beckett scooting around!
 We had a huge milestone while we were away! Beckett took his first steps! We were so proud of him! Here he is walking to Granddaddy.
He was very excited after he did it and clapped right along with us!
 Jackson of course had to get involved in this game! I love how they have their arms reaching out towards each other. So sweet!
 Noni's turn!
 Since we have returned to Kiawah, I had to get my shot of Jackson on the boardwalk. Every time we come to Kiawah, I make sure I get this shot of him.
 Since it was too cold to go swimming, we decided to fly a kite at the beach! Jackson was very excited as this was his first time ever flying a kite. It was quite windy which made it a little difficult to fly but we had a great time! At one point, Jackson did lose his grip on the kite and the kite went flying down the beach. Jackson was very upset screaming "No!" as he chased it down! It was actually pretty funnny :)
 Jackson flying around with the tail of the kite! It was so windy that the kite would actually twirl onto itself. We spent a good portion of the time untangling it rather than flying it!
 Jackson trying to get the kite to do a spin.
 Flying like a pro! I think this shot is actually right before he lost it.
 I had to post this picture because I feel like Jackson looks like a teenager!
Beckett doing what he does. Hanging out!
 Silly boys! Jackson thought riding the big bike with daddy was quite a treat!
 When is it my turn?
Family shot! This picture was right before we were heading out! Sad to leave as we had such a wondeful time!
 Thanks Noni and Grandaddy for helping us celebrate our anniversay and taking such great care of our boys! They are so lucky to have such wonderful, loving grandparents! We can't wait until it warms up for our next visit!


Gigi and Jackson have a lot in common...they both love chocolate! Every time we visit, Gigi has a delicious chocolate treat waiting for him. This time it was M&Ms.
As you can see from Jackson's red mouth that he enjoyed his candy!

Strolling with Noni!
Beckett found a better mode of transportation!
