goodbye mountains. hello beach!

i'm alive.  just barely.

been a rough day in the car but we finally left the mountains!

we were in lake lure, NC where dirty dancing {the movie} was filmed.

we had lots of family time and pool time.

and there were a handful of cute boys along the way to look at :].

so beautiful. but i'm so ready for the beach.

it's been a bit of a rough trip, but i'm sure this week will fly by.

the twins just turned 2 and are so 2 years old.

they want to control everything. and mommy and daddy allow a lot of it.

so due to that, it's really challenging for me.

and there are moments where the babies want nothing to do with me.

then the next moment they love me to death.  which is super frustrating and causes me to feel like i am not that much of a help.

but i'm told i'm being a huge help. so whatev.

{my big girls!}

{my sweet louisa}

and quite possibly my favorite picture from the whole entire trip.

{oh, eleanor....what a ham!}

i'm so ready to get my tan on.

and praying for patience this week in the meantime.
