The Whole Clan

As I may have mentioned before, we all go out for din-din together once during vacation. Here is a good picture of all of us together. 15 total. Special!! :)

This is Leah and my (single) cousin Tom. She wanted to help him pick out what he was having for dinner. It was a great night!

Charleston Playdate






As many of you may know, my dad does a lot of work with WaterMissions International on water purifcation projects. They happen to be located in Charleston - just a few miles from where we stay. George III is the founder, he has a son George IV that also works there...and George V made his arrival last March. We thought it would be fun for Leah to have a playdate with George V....so he and his parents came over for a bit yesterday afternoon. They had a GREAT time playing - they may have even held hands for a brief moment. Too cute!!

Day 3/4


Yesterday and today brought lots of family fun and togetherness. Yesterday, Dad, Leah and I went to pick Rosemary up from the airport while the rest of the clan went on a tour of Cypress Gardens. I was so excited get Rosemary, that I was a bit clumsy and slammed my thumb in the car door. Officer Leo was very kind and bandaged me up and advised me to keep it elevated.
Then, every spring break, Grandpa O likes to take the whole family out for a nice dinner at our favorite spot, California Dreaming. We decided that Tuesday was a good night to do that, so we all caravaned into the city and enjoyed a GREAT dinner. After that, we all rode through the city for a refresher course of the historical houses and landmarks. Charleston is SUCH a rich city and I forgot how beautiful it was.
Today, we're hoping it gets up to 60 degrees so we can at least venture out for a walk or something later on.

Day 2, part 2

dining room tables are for eating....so we hear.
Naptime with Grandpa - but he SAYS that he wasn't actually sleeping and it was staged for photographic purposes....believe that if you wish. :)









Just cuz she was so cute at bath-time...there's a couple more pictures. Don't mind me - it was early in the am.

































Spring Break - Day 2

Day # 2 - we love vacation! Leah got to take a bath in the kitchen sink this morning after eating breakfast with Ima and Grandpa.
How many computers can you count in this picture....there are 6 laptops in our condo right now. Apparently we need to stay connected to home life on vacation - shocking....
We all enjoy typing listening to the waves...ahhhh.

Sping Break -Day 1

Yesterday was a busy day of packing up Leah and my suitcase and getting ready for our big trip. Leah enjoyed the packing experience - and thought this was how she had to travel.

We left our house at 4 am - Leah was a TROOPER! Here she is getting ready for her first airplane right with Uncle Ky-Ky and Auntie Holly-hol. She did SO great on both our flights to Charleston. She slept for most of the time and enjoyed all the people watching in between. We are thankful for a smooth and safe trip!
