Weekdays:
- Monday - A big group of people went golfing while the rest of us hit up the beach and some banana boating. Once they were back, we went to dinner at the Grumpy Munk and cheered on Paraguay to victory over Germany - wahoo!!! We did shots, it was loud, we were fun!

- Tuesday - Pool and Beach during the day! Christie (Best friend from college) and her family were ironically in North Myrtle on the same week so they came to our beach for a part of the day. Clint and Connor had to head off for their 4 hour deep sea fishing excursion. I guess it was pretty choppy so the boys were all feeling a bit rough. While they suffered through that HA the ladies went to dinner and shopping at Barefoot landing. The boys did catch a shark but that wont get Connor to do it again HA.

- Wednesday - Last Day . . . Sad! We hung by the pool most of the day and then went into South Myrtle Beach to see the Boardwalk. After exploring, we came home and got dressed up for some family pictures on the beach before wrapping the day at Hooters cheering on the US Mens Soccer team to victory!!!
Boardwalk Fun!

- Thursday - Travel day! We had to check out by 10a and many got on the road by 9a. My parents and Kendall went in an uber to the airport around the same time. Molly/Caymen and my immediate family headed to waffle house for breakfast and then to Christie's condo for swimming and hanging until we had to head to the airport around 2p. It was so great to see Christie's family again and to see her parents who I havent seen in over a decade. We had a pretty smooth flight home and were happy to see our dogs when we reached the house around 8p - so tired!

Friday:
- Nice chill day back at home

- We headed up to the Club around 7p for live music and then fire works at 10p - Maci was glad to find her friend Livi and Connor hung with Eli and Oliver
Saturday:
- Happy 4th of July!
- We got up and at 'em around 6a to get to the Janko's cabin for boating, BBQ and fireworks
- We were on the lake by 10a and the kids LOVED the tube. We did some floating in the water and got a lot of nice sun
- We stopped for lunch at Zorbaz and got back to their house just before a storm rolled through
- We had some dinner and then it dried out so the kids started 4 wheeling before we went back out on the boat for fireworks
- Then things took a turn. . . Maci was on the back of Harper's 4 wheeler with no helmet (she feels really bad about this part) and took a tree branch to the dome without seeing it coming. I came out to check on them and here comes Maci from the wooded trail covered in dirt and crying
- We calmed her down a bit and got her to rest but after lots of discussion, we decided to take her to the ER to check for concussion/whiplash etc.
- The Jankos kept Connor and drove to the fireworks to watch from a car while we hung out with all the other crazies in the ER. Thankfully during the wait, she started to feel better and better and ultimately had no concussion and just a little whiplash. Everyone was excited to see her when we pulled back up, especially poor Harper who was so sad and scared for her.
- A 4th to remember :)

Sunday:
- Woke up at the Cabin
- Thankfully Maci is showing 0 signs of concussion and just a titch of a sore neck
- We ate breakfast and played some ping pong before packing up and hitting the road back home
- Clint and I got a lot of things done around the house while Connor played video games and Maci napped on and off to rest her body.
- We had a wonderful break and ready to get back into routine.
Connor fell back asleep on the floor
Lots of Love,
