FUn iN ThE SUn~ ChArlEsTOn sC

This past weekend we took our first family trip as 4! My best friend Shannon lives in Charleston and it was Luke's 1st Birthday and we couldn't miss it. Caleb is her older son he will be 3 in June and Luke just turned 1, Luke is 6 months younger than Christian to the day. Thursday night when Ed got home we started our journey, we made it 1/2 way stopping in Florence for the night.

Friday morning we got up and headed right into downtown Charleston for a family trip to the aquarium. It was so much fun! Christian really enjoyed himself and Benjamin did as well :) Christian was funny he would run up and look at some of the fish and then others seemed to scare him and he would put hold onto us so tight. Although as you can tell from the pictures he didn't seem to mind the snake. One of his favorite things was to play on the ship that they had in the middle of the aquarium. We will make plans to go back again it was a lot of fun!

Saturday was the big birthday party! Luke had a duck party and it was a lot of fun. The kids really enjoyed being able to play outside and run around. The rest of the time we just spent hanging out well chasing three of the 4 boys (since Benjamin isn't walking yet :) It was great to see them and we look forward to going back in June!

Lots of pictures- ENJOY!

The three big boys loved getting in the bed and jumping-
