South Carolina and back to the city

 This is the sign of an exhausting vacation.  All three asleep in the car at 4pm.
After the beach, we drove to South Carolina to visit with my family.  We had a very busy 5 days.
There are some mixed in pictures here-

       
Julian's first time in a high chair at a restaurant! He was clearly more interested in something else.
We found a mouse from "Mice on Main!" This cute book aunt Rebecca gave us a few years ago about nine mice on Main street in Greenville.
                                          The Falls in Downtown Greenville
Aunt Rebecca and Uncle Adam's little boy Ben. Such a cutie!

                                               Ryan giving Butch kisses
My high school friend Leah and her two kids Cadie and Carter.  It was so nice to catch up with them and her family.
                                         Grandma Sherri giving love and hugs


                                     Grandpa Levon
                                      All the cousins plus Jazzlyn, their second cousin



                                           The two trouble makers of the family
                                                          Grandma Diane


                                                                 Aunt Sue
                                We celebrated an early 5th birthday for the birthday girl Ella.
This is a perfect example of the evil eye from my sweet niece...
                                                      Big Benjamin almost walking!

                                                                     Best Buds





                  Briana reading to Andrew his current favorite book series-The Magic School Bus

             Looks like Julian is throwing the ball to Riley. Except he wanted to eat it himself
We got to go with Tracy to their pool. After the week at the beach the kids loved being back in the pool. I only managed three pictures apparently.
Diving Board jumper Evan!

Dad gave the McCalla family and our family this puzzle. It is 1000 pieces.  Chris was determined.

I laughed when my dad became a little dog lover and spoiled his dogs. This Riley Poo may be even more spoiled by Tracy and Brian.

                         Sprinkler Fun at Grandma Diane's house





I LOVE this shot. Ryan is in his own world, but apparently something was funny to the other three:)


                                               Grandma Diane and the Semesky boys



The kids loved Grandpa Levon and Grandma Sherri's new place. Out in the boonies with lots of red dirt and mud. And the lake. Little boy Heaven.
Grandma Sherri took them to the lake on the 4-wheeler





                                  Right after this picture the dog gave a big kiss to Julian

On our way home we got to stop for a few hours and visit with Cheryl and her family (minus Rob) in Roanoke.  We haven't seen them in 18 months!
Kennedy and Ryan flying high

Cute little mini-me Rob, Tyler
Not a successful one here...

The babies
                                            Then we stopped by the Kelly's in Baltimore

                                                       Charlotte and Melody
Ryan and Wyatt-best buds

And then we finally saw this.  I may not like living in the city all the time, but it is always nice to be back in your own (albeit small) home.
