Myrtle Beach 2009 Evans' family vacation

We are currently in the middle of our Evans' family vacation to Myrtle Beach, SC. The weather is unbelievable and the water warm as the sun.
WHen we arived, Addison was sick as many of you know.. Running a temp between 100-102.7. We medicated her with Tylenol and Motrin and kept it down for the most part but it was still there even with the medication. Tuesday I decided to take her to the hospital if she was still running a fever but when I got home from shopping, I checked her temp and she was normal! She has now been fever free with no medication for two days now and she is back to her normal happy self. She wasn't unhappy when running a temp but you could tell she wasn't herself. We are all thankful that she is well, that it didn't get worse and for all your prayers.

Annabelle is a different child from last year. She LOVES the ocean... (all the more reason we hope and pray we go to the Naval War College next year) She plays in the surf getting nocked down and loving every second! She loves the pool and the "couzy" (her way of saying Jacuzzy) too though both are more like bath tubs than pool/hot tubs.

*this was written over several days*

Though Annabelle loved the water and the ocean she too got sick running a 103 temp and feeling lathargic. While talking about illness on our vacation, both Haley and Jackson got sick as well! 4 of 6 children ended up with some sort of illness but thankfully no one got really sick and recovered fairly quickly..

We are home now (finishing this entry) but heading out once again tomorrow, back to the Carolina's for John's 25th high school reunion! Yes, John is that old!!

I will post some photos soon... maybe a slideshow of our beach trip..

Love to you all
