As you've no doubt seen in my recent post, I have no problem handling a shovel (its just like a spoon). Here I am digging some sand up into my bucket.
Here I am, cruising down the beach. The sand was pretty well packed, so I had an easy time of exploring. I didn't go in the water though - it was way too cold.
Whee!
We all had a really good time at the wedding itself and I was the star of the show (with the possible exception of the bride and groom, who I guess were also pretty important).
The trip started out right..I slept most of the night on the planes. Then we arrived in Jacksonville and got our rental car. We went and had breakfast at Cracker Barrel, where Daddy had some tasty pancakes. I even tried some! After breakfast we headed out Saint Simons Island, checked into our B&B, and found out we had a giant room! I stretched out and played for a little while before we went out to explore the town. It is a really neat place! A little beach town, Mommy and Daddy were excited about all of the places to eat. (I was excited because we found a toy store!) We had some lunch and then went to meet up with the bride and groom, Courtney and Scott. Then we went back to the room for naps, and went out to dinner with the wedding people who were in town. That night we went out and walked along the beach and the pier before bedtime.
Friday was great...we slept in, had some breakfast, and went out exploring again. Had some lunch, took some naps, then went to the rehearsal dinner. It was at a great restaurant in town, where we got to visit with everyone and meet back up with a bunch of Daddy's friends from Emory. Then it was time for bed...
Saturday was the wedding day. It started off with some sleeping in, then a trip to the beach. Mommy and I played in the sand while Daddy played Ultimate Frisbee with the groom, Scott, and a bunch of their friends. It was so fun playing in the sand! Then we went to lunch. Well, Mommy and Daddy went to lunch, I took a nap in my stroller. We went back to the room for a bath and some relaxation before the wedding.
The wedding was held on the lawn in front of the island's historic lighthouse, right on the beach. It was beautiful! Then we rode in a trolley car back to the B&B for the reception. It was a great night! Dancing, friends, Mommy said they had an amazing wedding cake, but I didn't taste it. We partied all night! Okay, Mommy and I didn't party all night, but Daddy did. Apparently he only got about one hour of sleep before we had to get up for our early morning flight! The plane trip back was fine, I didn't really want to sit on laps the entire time. But we managed.
Then we landed and Uncle Stephane came to pick us up. We spent the day with Marie and Olivier (and Beepers) at their house. Then Kristopher and Ella came over for dinner! It was a great ending to a great trip!

Hi precious Amelia,
You look so darling in your hat and sunglasses on the beach and then all dressed up for the wedding, definitely a show-stealer! From what Mommy says, you are as adorable inside as you are outside, such a beautiful gift to us all! Three weeks from today we'll be celebrating your first birthday, a whole bunch of people who love and adore you and Mommy and Daddy with a big party, such fun it will be! Auntie Katy and I get to come a couple of days earlier and celebrate with you, Mommy, and Daddy on your birthday and we are so excited to be part of that. We were there when you were born and now as you turn a whole year old. We love you so much and can't wait to see you! All my love, Grandma:)
