Hilton Head, S.C.

At the end of September we were able to join our friends Sandy and Juliana for a vacation in Hilton Head, South Carolina. This was a couples only trip and we truly enjoyed and appreciated the time of relaxation. We divided the kids between both sets of grandparents (a BIG thanks to Gramma and Grandpa and Grammy and Pappy!) and headed south for a four night get away.

Us with Sandy and Juliana

The Harbor Town Lighthouse--aren't the yacht's amazing?

We spotted several alligators while biking around.

This six-footer came a little too close for comfort!

Another gator on the golf course.

The golfers weren't even aware of the alligator until they saw us snapping photos. Yikes!

Bike riding on the beach. So much fun.

Our find of the week was this little local hole in the wall seafood restaurant called the Sea Shack. Below is a photo of their "shrimp burger." Yum!

We had fun biking, eating out, playing golf (the guys), outlet shopping (the girls), enjoying the beach, and being kid-free for a few days (although I did miss them!). Our "little ones" had just as much fun as we did during "grandparents week" and I don't think they missed us at all.
