We were planning to leave on Wednesday for our get away weekend, but we were SO tired we opted to leave on Thursday! We got up early and made lots of stops along the way ~
Bass Pro is a favorite of the boys!!
It was FLOODING when we got to downtown Savannah ~ We ate at The Pirate's House ~ The food was SO good and the kids enjoyed the atmosphere! Mary Dalton ate the buffet ~ she ate FIVE chicken legs!!!
If you are ever in SAV, it's a super cool place with lots of history ~ great place to stop!
The rain slacked up and we headed to River Street!
We took Mary Dalton's picture at The Boar's Head ~ This was the 1st restaurant we ever took her to! We were there for a conference ~ I think she was 5 weeks old!
Savannah candy company was our next stop ~ our children LOVE candy! So they were SO excited when Daddy let them each fill up a tin with ALL the candy they wanted!!!!
My crazy crew!!!
After the rain ~ it was STEAMY!!! We stopped off for frozen lemonades and to cool off!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this face ~ This is the face of "Mama!!! LOOK!!! NOW!!!"
Cooling off ~
One last photo before headin to the coast!!
When nature calls.....you gotta go.... :)
Our busy day + rain = great nap for Jackson!
We woke up early Friday and headed to St. Augustine!!! Stop One ~ alligator farm!
Once again ~ it FLOODED on our way ~ but it stopped before we got there and it was actually very cool! Jackson LOVED the farm and wanted to know if we could go back everytime we were at the coast!
this was where you could feed the gators ~ JDD was in AWE!!! There were LOTS of them!!!
We found a GREAT place to eat right on the beach ~ South Beach Grill ~

Even Picky liked it! :)
We got the kids in their suits and jumped in the ocean! They had a BLAST!!!! 
The waves were PERFECT and they had a ball playing!

So thankful for my babies!!!!
We played for about an hour and a half and then the thunder started....packed up, changed and headed to the outlet mall! Dalton took Jackson (who was sleeping) to check out a hunting store while me and MDD shopped. He came back to get us and JDD was not feeling so hot. Poor thing got SO sick! It was FLOODING again (seemed to be a theme of the weekend!) and we decided to head back to the coast. By the time we were back (2.5 hrs later) he seemed to be on the mend, so we stopped for a bite to eat before heading back to the coast house!

Saturday, we went to St. Simons (it was raining again!!!!) to eat at Southern Soul BBQ ~ It is one of the Top 20 BBQ places in the USA. IT WAS SOOOOO GOOD!!!! I can't wait to go back!!
My handsome husband!!! :)
Eating yummy BBQ!!!!

Saturday night, we had dinner and then rode the golf cart ~ Then started the NEVER ending game of monopoly!!!! Our kids LOVE this game and Dalton was ALL OVER it!!!
Sunday, we woke up in hopes of going to the sandbar ~ the low tide is not until 5, so we had to skip out! Mary Dalton was SO SO SO upset!!! So upset, that her Daddy promised her another trip down here before school starts ~ woohoo!!!
Our trip was wonderful! We enjoyed each other so much and made memories that we will never forget!!! I start back to work tomorrow teaching my last session of summer school, so this was a perfect end to my summer break!!!!
