Not really.. We were actually in the ever so classy and awesome Myrtle Beach, SC. And we had a blast! My family has vacationed in Myrtle Beach since before I was born, so honestly, it's like a second home to me. I love it! I know people make fun of MB all the time, saying it's trashy, too crowded, blah blah blah, but it's awesome- so get over it ;) Evan, Ben and I headed down south Friday morning, and Ben traveled wonderfully. He napped the first 2.5 hours, and the last 30 minutes just hung out. He's so awesome. The added bonus of our trip to MB was the fact that my brother was there the entire time we were there. It was so awesome to hang out with him. He's been in GA the last year and a half, so I don't get to see him too often. Watching him hang out with Ben was amazing. Ben love his uncle Chris.
The first night we went to Cagney's for dinner. Yummy. Delish. Although it took wayyy too long! Evan also accidently scared the s*^t out of this poor little boy who was about 2. While Evan was holding Ben in the bar area (Ben lost his cool once it hit 10:30) this little boy walked up to Evan, thinking he was his dad. When the little boy realized that Evan wasn't his dad he freaked! Poor guy, his parents of course rushed in to the rescue, but it was pretty funny.
Day two started off well, Ben woke up bright and early and we had a nice breakfast and then headed to the pool. Wow. We were NOT prepared for the heat. It seriously felt like it was about 120 degrees out + 200% humidity. The fact that I had attempted a long walk with Mom/Dad/Evan/Myra/John earlier did NOT help the fact that it was miserable out. We spent most of the afternoon in the pool, which was fun, but once it hit about 4 we had had enough. Ben still loves the pool, thank goodness!
That night we hit up Umberto's.. which was also awesome. I have been on a no carb/low carb diet for about a month now, and I definitely had to cheat a little bit to get through that meal. Family style Italian is NOT conducive to low carb.. oh well, I got over it real fast.
Ben overall was in a fantastic mood the entire trip! I've said it before, but this age is sooo much fun. I don't want him to grow up. He's crawling around like crazy right now, I can't keep up!! He gets faster every single day. It's nuts how time flies. Ben turned 7 months while we were at the beach.... he is officially closer to his 1 year birthday than he is to the day he was born :( I fall in love with him more every day. God, Ben and his daddy are my everything :)
