The morning after my grandma's funeral we all got up and went on a walk on the beach. As soon as we stepped foot off the dock we saw a school of manatees! They literally followed us from one side of the island to another! They even did a few tricks, as if they had escaped from Sea World. I think it was a special gift from the Lord :)
Every night we watched the sunset together...
And I finally got to show off the Toms I had been wanting for so long!
After spending 3 days with my parents, we had some fun guests come and join us for the weekend! Everyone came in town late on Friday night and we had a lot to celebrate together: Nick and Lindsay's new job and move to Raleigh, Sarah and Houston finishing law school, Stacey moving to Portland, Luke and I finishing our first semester of teaching/graduate school, Charles' birthday, and Charlie being half way done with law school! Although 2011 was hard for a lot of people, it was great to all be together to start a new year!
Saturday was spent with a long walk on the islandThe rest of our day we put our new cornhole sets to use! The biggest surprise of the night?! Lindsay and I dominated the boards...even we were surprised!
Then it was time for the last sunset of 2012...
The rest of the night we ate lasagna, played apples to apples, and went to Sharky's for a fun night of listening to music and dancing.
The whole group: Charlie, Houston, Sarah, Charles, Stacey, me, Luke, Linds, and Nick
The best part of the night...the OIB cougars were out on the prowl!! Houston (and his GF) were having to fight off the ladies left and right!
The lady on the left was trying to dance and bump hips with Houston all night...And the night ended with...
THE SHARK DROP!!! It was awesome. What an amazing time with some people we love.
