Vacation is exhausting!

Tweet

I'm not complaining.. it's my own fault I'm so tired. I'm trying to do too much and make the most out of every second I have here. We arrived in Myrtle Beach on Tuesday after spending a day and half in DC. Wednesday morning I was out of bed at about 5:30 in the morning. I wanted to watch the sun rise over the ocean, but it was too cloudy to see the sun. It did end up coming out and gave us a beautiful 80 degree day! I got the boys up early so we could check out the beach. Some jellyfish wash up periodically and we've never seen a jellyfish or the ocean so that was cool. Then the boys started playing in the water and in the sand.. and I decided I wanted to play in the ocean too. We spent hours playing on the beach! We took a break for lunch and headed to the boardwalk. We shopped a little and I bought a couple body boards. We came back to the beach to try them out and it was awesome! We decided we needed a couple more body boards because we all loved it so much. After dinner we played badminton on the beach until it was too dark to see anymore, then the kids jumped in the pool for awhile. I had to drag them out because I was falling asleep in my pool chair! I wanted to try to get up early again today to attempt to watch another sunrise.. but I didn't even begin to stir until 7am, and I was too darn tired to get out of bed that early. I forced myself up at 8.. but the rest of the family is still asleep! I will be getting them up soon for another busy day of fun! We want to try to visit the aquarium today, and I expect we'll be on those body board again. Our high school baseball team is down here playing a tournament and the kids want to go to a game if we have time... I think someone needs to teach me how to relax while on vacation. Lol!! I took this picture from the top of the skywheel.
