Hey, hey! Before I take off, Adam and I want to wish all of the fathers and dad's alike out there a Happy Father's Day.  We are blessed to have a few father figures in our lives and are especially thankful for them this year as we step into this new chapter of our lives. (warm fuzzies, hugs and all that jazz).

We welcomed the second half of our beach trip with raindrops on our noses and a cold chill in our bones.  Most days, it would be a let down that our warm and sunny days were overcast with clouds and rain. However, we welcomed the changing climate and took advantage of some much-deserved "adult naps" (seriously, the best) and did some of the more "touristy" things that took us to some spots we had not frequented before in Myrtle Beach.

We hit up a local dive for some raw oysters called, Rockefeller's Raw Bar and enjoyed some oysters with the most amazing homemade Worcestershire and cocktail sauce we've ever had (holy zing!) and some really delicious Fish & Chips that was breaded to perfection.

Midweek, Adam and I ventured over to central-Myrtle Beach and hit up Jimmy Buffet's "Landshark" restaurant for some drinks pre-Skywheel ride.  (yes, one of the most touristy) Things we've done on vacation. Our vlog has some footage of the 187ft Skywheel.

I wish we had captured all of the great moments with the family, as with five nieces and nephews, there were many.  We rounded out the week with more beach time and an infamous trip to Dick's Last Resort, where the servers berate you and serve you mediocre food (hello, Applebees!) Quite the experience.  Needless to say, our table gave our server a run for his money as he looked like none other than the Son of God with a Wis-cawn-sen accent. (Great time).

Additionally, we rounded out the vlog with a flashback from our first ever beach trip with our niece/nephew brood when they were just little babies. It's crazy to see how much they've grown! Almost enough to make my loins cry out for a bab..... haha, just kidding. Some day my friends, someday.


Enjoy the final installment from our trip! Look out for some home vlogs and move prep coming very soon!

See you!

-Us (for Real)

Sorry we missed you last week, we found ourselves with a drink in one hand, a book in the other and an unwillingness to come to the keyboard to blog-you-very-much.

Adam and I were able to take a quick break away from the hustle-and-bustle to enjoy a trip out to South Carolina with some of his family.  Our flight left early Friday am (7:30) and off we jetted to ATL for a quick layover and then into Myrtle Beach where we uber'd it to our condo and met the in-laws (Ashleigh's) and Adam's brother, his wife and their brood (5 of them... yep, 5 living, breathing little human beings).  We split a condo with the in-laws and the "zoo crew" had another a few doors down.




I have to admit, I failed to provide a lot of "commentary" as we vlogged; however, put together a quick recap of our first few days at the beach.  It was perfectly sunny the first few days and come Tuesday/Wednesday the clouds rolled in and temps dropped (seriously... to like upper 50's.. which is unheard of in the Carolina's this time of year).  Nonetheless, we made the best of it and enjoyed some great adult naps, shopping and a ton of food.

Standard Bloody Mary during our layover

Adam was often found boogie-boarding with our niece and nephews or burying the kids in the sand. I took a more leisurely approach and grabbed a book, sun tan lotion and laid out on the beach. (thank you, Jesus)


We grabbed dinner (twice) at The Flying Fish, which we would highly recommend. The most delicious crab legs, creamy shrimp and grits and (my fav) grilled salmon.  The Market Team was extremely entertaining and could often be found throwing fake and real fish at patrons as they walked by.  (Good show, everyone).

On Sunday, we ballsed up and decided to go parasailing, holy awesome.  It was so quiet and serene, despite Adam and I's best efforts to entertain ourselves 600ft in the air.  Highly recommended if you haven't... and for the love of pete, take a GoPro with you. I am super bummed we didn't catch any footage up that high.

Be on the lookout for Part II coming this week.  There was too much footage to put this into one giant vlog.  This week, it's go-time as we prep for the first walk-through of our home and start the countdown to closing (July 10th).  We are so excited!



See you!
