The Lemmons' Island Adventure

So today is Day 2 of our first beach trip in 5 years and our very first one with Miss Morgan, age 22 months. Yesterday was travel day and we left at 6 a.m., which was the time we'd planned to leave, amazingly enough. This was Morgan's first road trip, primarily because she has not proven to be a very good traveler, but I was pleasantly surprised. I drove, Bailey sat up front (her favorite spot), while Chris & Morgan sat in the back. Chris is endlessly patient and entertained the little thing the whole way, except for the 1.5 hours they both slept. And she was surprisingly happy the rest of the time, except for a brief screech-fest. We made two stops of about half an hour each which gave us all time to walk around. Even with those stops, we still made it to Hilton Head in 7 hours. A travel miracle!! Once we settled into our precious and wonderful home-away-from-home, we threw on the swimsuits and headed straight for the beach! Bailey has been so very excited about going to the beach for months, so there was no way we were going to skip it the first day just because we'd been on the ROAD all day!! So, here's the beginning of The Lemmons' Island Adventure Trip . . .
