Hilton Head Island Pictures

Annual trip to Hilton Head Island (aka Heaven Here Island), thanks to Mom, Dad and Marriott.


Love the name of this town and appreciate the GPS for taking us this way!


Owen is so good on these long drives, and the SpongeBob matching game and Connect The Dots apps on Bob's phone made the last hour fly by.




This is why I love this beach so much - it really is this wide and uncrowded and beautiful. Owen could happily spend all day, everyday, digging in the "fluffy sand" and "crashing the waves".



We get a bit spoiled with the cabana and chocolate milkshakes on vacation.


Waiting for the golf cart that ferries guests around the property. Definitely one of Owen's favorite things (along with those milkshakes!).



It's not HHI without miniature golf,



and s'mores,




and a seafood dinner overlooking the water. Owen loves king crab legs (and the beach, and the ocean, and chocolate milkshakes, and mini golf. Lucky kid).

On the way home we stopped in Charlotte to attend a Friends and Family party celebrating the grand opening of our friend's Mellow Mushroom restaurant. Marc and Le Anne have worked so hard on this venture and we are thrilled for them!


Le Anne is a talented interior designer and picked everything for the restaurant; here's Owen in front of the cool bus that's "parked" in the middle of the dining room.


Le Anne in front of the mural in the ladies room - so fun!


Owen with Elloree and Rhys, Marc and Le Anne's kids and two fellow Kokshetauians (yeah, I made that word up but you know what I mean).


One more stop before we arrived home - dinner and a short visit with Cearra. Wish we had more time with her but looking forward to a very special event at Mary Baldwin in November.

Hi Jodi,

These moments are so sweet! Thank you for sharing them with PopPop and me and for taking so many pictures to help us remember them. Love you all.
