Ocean Spray

A few weeks ago, the Nido clan...minus the middle lovie ( insert sad face here) ...took a little vacation to Kiawah Island.  Not only is it a beach, but it's a little slice of heaven.  Our days consisted of sitting on the beach for hours on end, riding bikes all over the island, and laughing uncontrollably at the dinner table.  There was even a day trip to Charleston where we walked through the market, visited Fort Sumter to "touch the Civil War" (as Emily said), and trekked across the city just to enjoy a cupcake.

    

This week flew by faster than any of us could have ever imagined.  There was sibling time, best friend time, family time, and even some Bentley time.  Monday night was Bachelorette night, but we were too busy enjoying shrimp and grits at Shem Creek Bar & Grill to make it home in time to watch Bentley's return.  We waited until Tuesday night in anticipation to watch it online...but Nina found it on demand and did a little jig we like to call the Bentley dance.  Yes, she danced.  

The best part of the week was that Andi, in theory, was with us!  She had absolutely no idea that any of this was going on.  Before we left, I took some pictures to Kinko's to crop and enlarge.  The only part that was cropped and enlarged was her head.  We brought Andi with sunglasses (Andi at the beach) and we brought Andi without sunglasses (Andi out on the town).  Although we got some funny looks from passers-by, the whole venture was worth it.  

This was the most perfect week any of us could have asked for.  I wish I could just rewind and go back right now to relive the greatest week of the summer. So I leave you with this....

peace. love. and all things Kiki
