Hilton Head Part 1

On June 1, we drove down to Hilton Head for a week long stay.  It was a 5 hour trip. Ahnya flew down to Atlanta on May 31.

We went to the beach on June 2. It was extremely windy and sort of chilly. It felt like it was in the 60s. The actual temperature that day in Hilton Head was in the mid 80s.

Cleo and Roger made a little sand castle with a moat that we kept refilling with water.

Cleo dressed and ready for her first golf lesson on June 2.

Ahnya, Sidney and Cleo sitting at the harbor at Harbourtown which is the area of Hilton Head where the house is that we stay at.  The harbor is a 10 minute walk that takes 20 when we are with Cleo and Sidney.

Entertaining Sidney while we wait for Cleo's lesson to finish.

Next was Sidney's lesson. He really enjoyed it.

Keeping Cool in the Heat

A few weeks ago we filled our new wading pool and enjoyed the warm weather.

Sidney is worn out from all of the activities today.  He had a  great time. Roger picked Cleo up from school at 11am and she was able to participate in the fun as well. Today was her last day of school.  On Tuesday, May 27, they start their first week of camp at Southwest Arts Center. We expect them to love it.  They will be there for one week.  Then we go out of town. Then they return to that camp for another few weeks.  They'll go to a different camp in July.  Cleo goes to gifted camp for a few weeks in June.

June 1-8 we are in Hilton Head. We cannot wait. Ahnya arrives May 31 and will be joining us in HH.  Linda, Robin, Kaelin and Connye (one of Roger's aunts) will be joining us as well. Cleo and Sidney are really looking forward to it as are we.
