Tybee Island

Sunday morning we work up and drove 3 hours to Tybee Island. We've never been and I've been wanting to go to the beach so badly. The lake just is not the same. We had a blast and afterwards ate at a restaurant called Crab Shack.

Joel and I remebered to lather the boys up with sunblock but missed many of our own body parts. The boys have no traces of sunburn but he and I are both beat red all over.

Another fun part, changing in the truck in the parking lot of the restaurant. I had so much sand in my butt crack, it's not even funny. Ok it was funny.

At first we went to the lighthouse area, there was not many people but there was also no bathrooms or anywhere to eat/drink. So we went and found ice cream. After our lovely snack we went to the other side of the Island. It took us about 45min. to find a place to park. It was awful . But we walked the boardwalk and could see dolphins out in the water.

We went back down to the water again. On this side of the Island it was much more rough so we put the life jackets on the boys. We all went out to were Gavin could just touch and bobbed in waves. The boys also thought it was cool that they could float and let the waves take them in to shore. After a while Teagan got tired (again, he took one nap after ice cream and while finding a parking spot). He and I sat on the beach and let the waves go up over our legs. This is where I got a crack full of sand. LOL.

We went to the restaurant. It was very crowded but very cool. There were a ton of little alligators that you could feed. Gavin really liked that. We ate our dinner (shrimp, crab legs, lobster augratin, potatoes, corn) and then headed home.

We had to stop again to get coffee, apple pies and a kids meal for the boys to share at McDonalds. It was a wonderful day! I can't wait to spend a weekend there!
