A Beautiful Father's Day on the Island:

(working on mastering the art of family selfies :D )



the photo above was taken in honor of Little Angel's big solo last weekend :)


there was most definitely pizza and icecream involved today....I think Father's Day was more about the kiddos today...hmmmmm, funny how that works :D

who needs a professional photographer...I mean look at this family selfie :D

and a great (and piping hot) day was had  by all!

Happy Father's day!


Wishing all the wonderful dads, here and in Heaven....a blessed and beautiful Father's Day!

There is so much to celebrate and honor today, and I'm so grateful! Here's a shout out to three of my favorite dads!
Two years ago, just a few days before Father's Day, my own dad received a very unexpected cancer diagnosis....and he fought hard and beat it...I can't tell you what it means to me today to not only have him with us, but to be able to celebrate Father's Day with him at two of his favorite places....an Italian restaurant, followed by the beach! This is the first time in many years that I get to celebrate with my dad in person....because a few months ago...my parents moved to SC, just a hop, a skip, and a Sun City security gate away;)
And to my father in law, age 92. Although we don't live in the same state, I'm so grateful we get to spend as much time as we do with you...Florida is not all that far; and Ohio (it's a little farther), but not too far either. My girls get to grow up with both sets of grandparents...as did I, what a blessing!
My father in law raised six wonderful children, has six amazing grandchildren, and five beautiful great grandchildren. A year ago, just one day after Father's Day, he very unexpectedly lost Peter, his middle son, while Peter was having a beautiful vacation in Alaska.
Peter is seated with his two brothers in the picnic table photo (in the dark blue shirt). Honoring Peter today, as well!

And (finally), to my own husband. He is an amazing best friend, husband, and father....And it's and honor and adventure to be his wife! And five years ago on Father's Day, we packed our household in that really big truck in the photo below, we hooked up the boat, the camper, two young kiddos and a golden retriever, leaving WI for SC on our newest adventure...oh, and we headed to South Carolina with no place to live (at least he had a job lined up;)

Happy Father's Day; embrace each moment!





Happy and Blessed Father's Day!

Father's Day 2014 and Celebrating Four Years in South Carolina

 
Four years ago on Father's Day, we hooked up the boat and camper and headed to our new lives in SC with a job but no place to live:).

Very grateful! And our first time here...sitting on the deck with great food, great music and great breezes!
— at The Crazy Crab Hilton Head.  (The baked potato and side salad were out of this world;)  While we sat on the deck, the girls enjoyed the playground and sand area just below:)  We were gifted with special tourist prices too!!  :/  (it's the first place you see when you come onto the island; although we had a great time and the food was good, there's probably a good reason why most locals don't come here or have never been:)


 
 
 
 
  
and of course we hit the beach for a bit....
 
 
 
and my sweet fairy girl pointed out pointed out that she has officially lived half her life in WI and half in SC...it seems like just yesterday that we were packing up and headed down.Fairy Girl  was just past the toddler days . But somehow during all of this, the girls got a lot taller;)

Photo one was taken in Wisconsin hours before we found out we were moving, in May of 2010.

Photo two taken on Hunting Island in June of 2010.

Photo three taken on Hilton Head Island in June of 2014. 

 
snfff snffff...nolstalgia:(

Great Times; feeling SO VERY Blessed

Father's Day With My Girls' Daddy

doing what we love best; pizza and the beach...wait, pizza ON the beach, a winning combination :D




just me, wearing a necklace and earrings; both gifts from my dad...and there are my little girls behind me:)


And here is my beloved loggerhead's nest; we had the gift of watching this beautiful sea turtle come out of the ocean and lay her eggs, just eight days ago!
