post-Christmas beachin'

"create in me a pure heart, oh God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me." -Psalm 51:10

welcome back to holden beach!

the day after Christmas, mom, sees, and I headed to holden beach for the week. it was absolutely gorgeous the entire week - literally, 65 degrees everyday. i didnt even have anything to wear the whole time because all i had packed were sweaters and long pants! sad story, but not really...








on tuesday, chris, meredith, brooks, and ellie joined us at the beach house. that night, steph and saylor came to play.

saylor and brooks were love at first sight.

they had a lot of fun playing together.







the next night, dad and ricky arrived. we decided to celebrate by going to patronie's pizza for dinner! sadly, i only took a couple pictures, but at least they were good ones! :)



on thursday, a present arrived from chris and meredith to the whole family: georgetown cupcakes!! YUM

and yes, we combined our efforts and ate all of the cupcakes.

also on that day, dad went and picked up our new air hockey machine! he got it for a steal from a local guy at the beach. it was in perfect condition and brooks and i had a blast playing against mimi on it!



here is another night - pops and ellie spending some quality time together.





and then she went down for a nap



while ricky and brooks played wii bowling. (brooks actually beat ricky in bowling - sorry ricky)!

on saturday morning, brooks got to stuff his build-a-bear that meredith had sewn for him. he was excited to put the stuffing inside and get him dressed up!





ellie also enjoyed watching the process.






ok, thats about it for my random collection of pictures throughout the week. stay tuned for a new years eve post so soon!
