St. Simons

This past week marked the annual family trip to St. Simons and while I could only go for a few days (And Blair couldn't come at all, don't worry he has been instructed that he really needs to step it up next year) the trip was just as perfect as ever. A usual day involves a run, breakfast at our favorite place in the village (Palmer's, if you are ever in SSI, you have to go eat here), and then sitting on the beach til about 5:00, happy hour, bed, repeat.

My grandparents met on the beach at SSI many years ago and we have been going back ever since. With new additions to the family (husbands, wives, dogs, etc.) it is so fun [terrifying for anyone else on the island] to watch our group grow. Grandmother and Fado would be so proud!

I wasn't very good with my camera this year but snapped a few pictures on my phone that accurately capture what a normal day is like...

Happy hour on our last night

Already waiting for July 2013 to come around so we can do it all again! Hope you all had a great weekend, thanks for reading!
