Hilton Head, SC

We spent the week after Christmas with Chris' family in Hilton Head, South Carolina.  It was a really relaxing trip and so fun to see so much of the Ward family.  As much as I am southern California girl, I love East Coast beaches--you know, lighthouses and all that.  We mostly played games, played football on the beach (I use the term we loosely here), watched movies, rode bikes (on the beach!), ate delicious food and just generally enjoyed each other's company.  We also had a family night program most nights and that was one of my favorite parts.  My other favorite part was having dance parties with Ella and her cousins.  Pretty hilarious stuff.  Now for some pics.

The top of the lighthouse in Harbourtown.  Ella is going for the Donald Trump swoop with her hair.  "The Donald" is not quite as awesome as when Chris had "The Rosie" haircut (as in Rosie O'Donnell).
I'll have to fish out a picture for that one...

The Ward Family (minus Juli and Brent families--we missed you guys!)

Scrabble--Chris' favorite!

Chris' other favorite--football with his family
(until my sweet sister-in-law Stefani broke her ankle in 2 places playing football on this trip--then it was not so much fun). 

Ella "loving" her cousin Bailey

My super cute in-laws.  I know few people more in love than these two.


Our little family

New Year's Eve--love those pouty lips!

Nothing like marshmallows to cheer a girl right up!

Happy New Year!
