Memorial Day trip to Kiawah!

We had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend at Kiawah! It was filled with time at the beach, bike rides, dancing at Freshfields, and a little celebration to recognize Noni's dedication as a teacher over the last 25 years. This was the first time Brad and Kiera and ourselves were there since Jackson and Mary's first Memorial Days!! How much time has gone by and how much they have changed. No longer is Jackson the little 5 month old baby afraid of the water!! There were so many pictures and I tried to condense them as best I could. This first picture is Jackson riding his bike at Noni and Granddaddy's. He had so much fun riding more than just a few feet. He even rode his bike all the way to the beach and back!!





Jackson and Mary heading to the beach!









Catching some waves with daddy.










Sandcastle time!










Splash! Splash!









The 2 dudees hanging out.









My sweet beach bum.












Getting a ride by Noni. Weeeeee!!








Jackson's turn to give Mary a ride!






Concert at Freshfields! They were giving away water ballons and they were a huge hit! Jackson loved to dance around with it!







Ring around the rose with Noni!










Jackson made a friend with this cute little girl. They must have thrown the ballon back and forth to eachother for 20 minutes.








Catch!









Three peas in a pod!









Noni with the grandkids!










Could they be any cuter?







It is definately not easy to get a picture of all 3 kids looking at the camera. This was the best I could come up with!!








Getting tickled by the grass.









Family pic at the Ocean Course clubhouse.








Noni's celebration lunch at the Ocean Course. Congratulations Noni on 25 years of hard, dedicated teaching!! We are so proud of your accomplishment, and so happy that you will now have more free time!!! It's time for some much deserved R&R.





I just love their poses.








I have a suspicion that this is the first of many pictures of Jackson and his daddy on the golf course.








Thank you Noni and Granddaddy for a wonderful holiday weekend!! The first thing Jackson said when we got home was I want to go to Noni's house!!

What a special holiday weekend! Jackson, Mary and James are just precious and the Kiawah backdrop is spectacular! I'm sure this is just the beginning of many many more outings with Nonie!
