a week 'pon top edisto!

• edi-slow time.
• the long walk david and i took last saturday night on the beach at midnight by a fullmoon looking for mama turtles making their way to check on the babies. we didn't see any, but it was awesome anyway. the water was like glass.
• a rainy sunday that forced us to nap under the tin roof!
• a quick workweek of monday and tuesday and getting mama b's carpet pulled up so that david can put in her hardwood floors this weekend.
• the 4th of july at edisto with big d and shelbs, little b, whitty-whit and ben and susan. we had a great time in the water and little b and i even snuck in a 2 hour nap in the hammock. he's a good snuggler!
• david's homemade cheeseburgers!
• watching the fireworks that were miles away on kiawah. happy that the turtles on edisto were safe as no noise scared them.
• LAZY thursday of lunch at the sea cow and an afternoon on the beach. sigh.
• LAZY friday of a quick trip to fish or cut bait gallery and the kayak place and then an afternoon on the beach. . . sigh.
• dinner with susan on friday night - we snuck away to drink BEER while the grandparents watched the bad boys. awesome crab dip and dinner and good conversation.
• saturday at brickhouse. after i thought the week was ending, a visit to the jenkins compound and the historic float down the riva'. 150 floats of all shapes, sizes, colors, and animals! float out with the tide and back in with the tide. all the while sipping on my new favorite summer beverage, lemoncello, and eating boiled p-nuts. way too much fun! poppy fell out of his float and i almost spit out my drink! the thought of my mom on the turbanado princess chair float poppy picked out for her as she floated to other 'pods' to see what good food they had.
• annie and ada renee (like bridget renee) tied up to us - too much fun!
• knowing which float to get next year for poppy so he can drink his beer and sit up at the same time.
• my catcher's mit float. awesome.
