St. Simon's Island

First off SORRY for not blogging in a while! The off season is supposed to be our down time, but we have been busy bees this year! Our latest trip to St. Simon's Island was AMAZING!!! Ashley, James, Levale and I went to visit James's sister, Cindy and her two kids, Sky and Durham. Her friend Cal was nice enough to let us stay at his house because James's parents went as well, and stayed with Cindy. THANKS CAL! On Friday morning we all piled in Cindy's Jeep and went on an adventure around the island. We went to an infamous breakfast place on the island, "Sweet Mama's", the beach, and just rode around to explore. The island is absolutely BEAUTIFUL. The trees are unreal, and the houses have so much character. Needless to say, the Jeep was a little chili, so we headed in to get ready for "The Village!""The village" is full of shops, restaurants, and bars. We enjoyed a leisurely afternoon walking around the shops and having lunch before we headed to Cindy's for some yummy Shrimp Pasta. On Saturday we went to a famous Sports Bar, Brogans, to watch the "World's Largest Cocktail Party." For those of you who are clueless, it is the Georgia vs. Florida game that takes place in Jacksonville every year!After the game, we went back to Cal's to hang out! As usual the guys always find something to get into, and for some reason it always revolves around FIRE...they had a grand time, and even met some new friends, the next door neighbors!!! We got up Sunday morning and came back home. We had a wonderful weekend and look forward to our next trip with Ash and James!
