FAMILY VACATIONS + LINKS

When I was growing up, my family would take a vacation every year with either my dad’s side of the family or my mom’s side of the family. And most every year, we would go back to the same island on the South Carolina coast and spend a week vacationing to our heart’s content. Eating good food, lounging on the beach, crabbing, fishing, shopping, sleeping…I have so many memories of those weeks with my families. So many good memories.

We are spending the next few days on this same island with my small family (as in, just parents + siblings), and it is going to be glorious! We’ll do all the things we’ve always done when we are here, and it all feels so familiar and comforting and relaxing. Plus, it sure is nice to have the perfectly warm spring weather that the south offers this time of year. Plus, it sure is nice to have a husband with me this time to share in all the goodness and fun of our beach vacations.

We always rent bikes for the duration of our time on the island, and use that as our primary mode of transportation, whenever we can. I think that would be one of the biggest perks of living in a city…being able to use your feet or a bike to get where you want to go. Plus, there is just something so vintage about pedaling home with groceries in the bike basket in front of you…hehe!
