Myrtle Beach

We were fortunate this spring to be able to take a vacation to Myrtle Beach with two of our best friends, Gared and Shawna. I think this has to have been the first "real" vacation for just the two of us other than our honeymoon. We had such an amazing time I wanted to share a few of the pictures.

It was so nice to have sand between my toes again! I didn't think that I would miss the beach and the water when I left Mississippi, but I can't get over how much it felt like home to hear the waves and smell the salt in the air. It was overcast a couple of the days we were there, but we managed to get some time in the water while the sun was out.

True to our vacation "trends," we made it to play a round of miniature golf. It was even more fun with good company! Of course, it took us twice as long to play through because of all the photo ops we stopped to take advantage of!

For our fancy dinner night we went to Rioz Brazillian Steak House. This was my first experience with this type of place, but oh! was it amazing! We started out at the gigantic salad bar that included all sorts of appetizers and sides, and then they begin the meat "service." They bring around skewers with all sorts of different cuts of meat - prime rib, chicken, lamb, ribs - you name it, they probably had it. It was incredible!

We had a wonderful trip and are very thankful that we were able to share the experience with Gared and Shawna. We can't wait to plan our next vacation and hope even more friends can join us!
