Here are just a few fun black and white shots from our vacation in St. Simons. (I am still working on the posts from Tybee and the rest of the SSI vacation.)
This is the boardwalk from the St. Simons Beach club, where we stayed, to the beach.
The King and Prince. (I love old beach clubs… they have so much charm.)
This was our sweet set-up down on the beach. We rented it for the week and it was the perfect getaway to curl up in with a good book and a cold drink. So relaxing and so peaceful.
Tonight, my two ballerinas performed in their first ever recital. Little Lauren completely froze after the first ten minutes and Olivia participated on and off throughout the performance. Olivia has really come a long way, in the past, she was the one who would completely freeze during their preschool concerts. Poor Lauren, I think she was completely freaked out by the audience. She was a trooper though, she didn’t cry.
All smiles before the performance.
Livie and Lauren with their darling dance teacher, Miss Brooke.
Uh oh, I think the fear was setting in right about now…
The girls were so proud of their diplomas! (Craig gave the girls each a bouquet of flowers, but we forgot to take a picture of them. Oops.)
Many thanks to Miss Brooke for such a wonderful year filled with laughter, and a love of dance.
Wow, I have really fallen off the blog wagon the last few months. As promised here are the rest of the Savannah pictures from my trip with my parents. (Warning, this is a very long post…)
The next several shots were taken inside the Paris Market. I LOVED that store. So much character and lovely things all in one place.
On Saturday morning, we took a trolley tour through the city. Our guide was, as my Mom put it, “really traveling”. I am surprised we didn’t all end up with whiplash. On some occasions, I would see something I wanted to take a picture of, but just as I was getting ready to take it, the driver would “step on it” and the shot would be gone and I would inadvertently take a picture of the sky. I did, however, manage to get a few fun shots.
The Pirates’ House
Rainbow Row
The Lady and Sons’ Restaurant
City Hall
I love the trees in Savannah. They are so dreamy…
Savannah has such beautiful architecture and several historic churches that are absolutely breathtaking.
Gotta love a pink bike. All it needs is a basket and a bell.
I thought these colorful doors were kind of fun.
Of course there was plenty of yummy seafood!
This was my Dad’s crazy dinner one night. I think I would have freaked if I had ordered it and that showed up. I love fish but that is too much work.
This is more my style….. Crab, mango, avocado, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
A few shots from City Market…
I couldn’t resist taking a picture of this telephone booth outside a small English pub where we ate lunch on our last day. I had a smoked salmon BLT that was positively to die for!
I had the BEST time on this trip with just my parents. It is not often that I get the opportunity to travel with them by myself and it was a real treat! Thanks Mom and Dad for such a wonderful time! I love you both so very much!
