Myrtle Beach 2011 cont…..

Today got off to a good start. The house was quiet, the kids were sleeping… It was nice… until the alarm went off at 7:30. We forgot to turn it off. Shortly after the alarm all the kids were awake and running rampant through the house. So we got up and started making breakfast. That didn’t go well either. I burnt the bacon so Lisa took over. We had plans to go to the Tanger Outlets to get Lisa some pants and then back for lunch so the kids would get an early nap so that we could spend a lot of time at the pool. Needless to say that didn’t work. It was raining so we had to make other plans.

We decided to let the kids go swimming in the large bathtub. They loved that. When the rain stopped we got ready to go to the outlets. There are two outlets in Myrtle Beach. Of course we went to the one that didn’t have the store we wanted. So we packed up and went to the other one. When we got done there we went out to eat.  The place we chose was close to the outlet we were at but we couldn’t find it. So we drove to the other location closer to our resort and had about the worst experience that we have had eating out. The food was blah, the service…. well I think we had that, and the price was way to much. After lunch we decided to walk it off on the beach and also give the kids a chance to get out and run around. The kids love going to the beach and looking at the ocean. We didn’t get in because the weather is too cold along with the water. Lisa and three of the kids got to see some crazy teenagers go into the water though. I took Reba home because she was too cold. When we got back to the condo Lisa and the kids got ready to go swimming while I stayed home with CJ and let him take a nap.

We are now getting ready to head back home to real life. Not looking forward to that but it has to happen some time. The kids are sleeping, laundry is almost done, and we are watching Castle. If only we could stay a few more days…
