Sunshine & Summertime Fun!

 The summer is flying by! I can't believe July is almost over already! Other than working we've been having some little adventures of our own as we get ready for baby to arrive. Mostly these adventures include trips to Des Moines for baby gear and side trips on the days we have our doctor appointments. However, in June, we got to go on a BIG adventure!

The last week of June we flew to North Carolina to spend the week with two of our best friends! You can't imagine how excited we were! (We hadn't seen them since they moved the first week of January.) We spent our time trying out restaurants, site seeing, and spending time on the beach! We actually spent most of the trip on Hilton Head Island in South Carolina.
Sunrise on the beach!
We saw so many neat animals, climbed a lighthouse, swam in the ocean, and just relaxed! The pictures below are some of my favorites from the trip!

The four of us!

Pelicans! I loved watching them and the seagulls on the beach!





While we were on our trip we reached our 31 week mark, so of course we couldn't pass up the opportunity to do some belly bump pictures on the beach!

It was sad to leave Maisee & Travis behind, but nesting has set-in full swing since we've returned and we've kept busy getting ready for the newest little member of our family to arrive! Here are a few pictures of what we've been up to there!

I hope to get a couple of posts/tutorials up at some point for all of the sewing and baby projects I've been workings on.

Hope everyone is enjoying their summer!
Love,
Emily
