...St. George Island!

So we are heading down to St. George Island with 7 of our youth(all girls...hehe)...for a Beach Retreat! So we decided to head down ourselves to check out the place and have a little family 'retreat' !

So we unpacked our little car and went out to explore...

It is beautiful there, God creation at its Finest!! The retreat center has a camper that they let pastors and their families stay in...just for....RENEWAL!!

Emma hadn't had a nap so after we got ice cream and walked around a bit we were so thankful that she zonked out in the backseat!!!

We had a good afternoon just chillin...however our night was less than restful...Emma decided she wanted to get up at 4:15am...(sorry this is the earliest i am thinking of taking pictures...but 6:17am is still too early to be awake)

so what else do you do that early...we took a walk, found some crab...

saw the sunrise(at least the last part of it) and...

picked up rocks....

We had intended on spending the day at the beach...but thought it would be less than perfect with ALL 3 of us being exhausted so we headed home....!!!!

(Which emma slept the ENTIRE way!! Praise the Lord!)
