Our Weekend

This past weekend, we headed to the coast of Georgia to surprise Mr. S's dad, Gerald, with all 4 of his kids + spouses & 6 of his grandkids

(plus Lily on the way)!  

SURPRISE!

I think the look says it all! 

Meeting sweet Brock for the 1st time :)

 Siblings

 The whole gang!

After the surprise, we headed to unpack and get settled.  Upon unloading the cars, Mr. S & Meg decided to do a little bike riding...

The rest of the evening consisted of a low-country boil, game playing & boat riding!  What better way to spend a Friday night?!??!

Saturday started with a little exercise for Mr. S & me.  We then joined the family for a yummy homemade breakfast, followed by an "intense" game of kickball!  Not sure who won, but I can say we had some serious competitors-ranging from ages 7 to 59! :)  Fun, fun times!

It was HOT over the weekend, so swimming was a must!  Everyone had a great time hanging and playing in the pool...not sure who had a better time...the kids or adults?!?

Sunday came too quickly...what's new???  Before heading to grab breakfast, we headed down to the dock to check the crap traps & to get one last family picture. 

Sweet kiddos

Blessed!

It isn't often that all 4 families can find an available weekend to all get together, so this time together was so special.  Life can get busy and overwhelming, but a weekend with family will always be a blessing--a great way to reconnect and grow our relationships.  A BIG thanks to Britt, Slade's brother, for coordinating the surprise---it was a wonderful weekend of celebration and time with family:)
