Well, mil is feeling much better, not 100%, but is on the road to recovery, and she really wants us to come down and stay with them for our holidays. Woohoo!! We're very excited and relieved too. The kids LOVE to see them, and the holiday down there is so perfect for us. We just really have to pay for our airfares and of course we pitch in for food and gas...but we have the house, the community pool, the golf cart paths to bike on and of course, the beach, the shopping (OMG IT"S BEEN SINCE MAY THAT I"VE GONE SHOPPING!!) and the fun touristy stuff. There's a new
HardRockCafe theme park and our favourite
Broadway at the Beach. We stay in Pawleys Island, which is south of Myrtle Beach, a sleepy town with huge old trees with moss hanging down. The beaches there are quiet, lonely and white soft sand. The kids love to play there.
I can't wait to see the old southern homes, the beautiful scenery...and of course, my inlaws. I'm so lucky to have them as my inlaws. I know some people really dread visits with theirs, but me...I feel so grateful to have a mom and dad like them. The only gripe I have is that they would come and visit us more often, but they usually reverse the idea and help us out with airfares, so we can have a holiday down there with them instead. Makes sense, who wants to visit up here anyways? ;-)
So in August, I get to warm up and complain about the humidity of South Carolina. Not a bad complaint.
Very nice to hear your MIL is feeling better. and the weather down here has been awesome the last few days...but we are gearing back up for the humidity that is sure to blast us in about 3 days!...Have fun in Myrtle Beach...we're going to the Outer Banks and Wilmington this year...2 more weeks before we go!
