Vacay Pics Pt. 4

We headed to Myrtle Beach Wednesday morning.  I was excited to be heading somewhere that would hopefully be less hot and humid. lol  I was also excited to meet Ryan's other cousin in the area, Suzie.  And of course, I was excited to go to the beach! 

We got to Myrtle Beach around lunchtime and checked into our hotel.  Suzie is the manager at the Sheraton and she told us she would set us up with our rooms but we were shocked when we checked in and found out we were going to be staying in the Presidential Suite! 

Our room

Another view of our room

The Master, where Ryan's parent's slept.

Our room.  Suzie left us some beach toys to take to the beach, Rori loved playing with them.

Cadi's bed

We had nice vaulted ceilings.

A view from our room.

Rori really liked playing in the windows. lol
Great view, Mom!

Where's she go?

She also liked playing in the big cabinets under the sink and under the TV. lol

After we had checked in, we quickly got ready to go to the beach!  We went to a spot that was about half way between Myrtle Beach and North Myrtle Beach (it was much less crowded).  The waves were a little higher than normal but we still had a great time!  The water was wonderful!  It wasn't anything like the water on the West Coast, it was warm!  I loved it!

Rori didn't want to wait for me, she took off running down the boardwalk! lol

Come on, Mom!  Stop taking pictures and let's get going!



Are we ready to have some fun?  YES!

Cadi and Grandma wasted no time at all - they were the first ones in the surf!



Don't worry, Rori was never allowed near the water without one of the adults.  Though, she tried. lol

Fearless










It was fun but we were all spitting salt water whenever we got out of the water. lol

And the salt water stung our eyes a bit.

Grandpa and Cadi

Rori and Dad

I tried boogie boarding for the first time. lol



Just havin' fun!

Ryan took turns pulling the girls on the boogie board.  They loved it! lol







Rori and Grandpa

Getting chased by the Daddy Monster!

Finally ready to dry off.

Just taking a nice stroll down the beach with Grandpa.

After having a great time at the beach, we went back to our room to shower and clean up. 



Suzie got us tickets to see Dolly Parton's Dixie Stampede that night.  It was fun, the girls really enjoyed it.  Some of the stunts were pretty cool.  Here are a few pictures:

We were able to look at the horses as we walked toward the entrance.

Girls gone wild!

Grandma and Grandpa

Rye-n-Rye

After the show, we hit some outlets and did some shopping. :)  Later when we got home, I took a pic of the view from our room at night:

City Lights

It was a fun day - we fit a lot in!  There's still more to come, so check back in later! :)
