178 & My Bucket List....

I LOVE lighthouses....we climbed 178 steps to the top of the Tybee Lighthouse. The view was incredible & so was the wind. It reminded Kayla & I of a tower we climbed in Europe; it was just as cold at the top of the lighthouse as it was at the top of that tower. I have checked that off my bucket list, I have been to several incredible lighthouses but this was my first climb to the top of one.

TYBEE LIGHTHOUSE....

Paula Deen....

Saturday we tried to have lunch at Paula Deen's restaurant....Lady & Sons, but you have to get in line at 9:30 that morning & hope for a table. So Sunday we went back & got on the list for lunch at 1:45. We were seated on the 3rd floor; they only serve the buffet on Sunday's but it was worth the wait.

Bonaventure Cemetery....

This cemetery is located on a scenic bluff of the Wilmington River, the cemetery became famous in 1994 when it was featured in the novel.

Savannah....

This beautiful home is located across the street from Forsyth Park! The Spanish moss was hanging from all the oak trees!

Forsyth Park....

Cecilia wanted to go to Forsyth Park & Bonaventure Cemetery....both of which were in "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil". I've not seen the movie but I definitely want to now. The fountain was dyed green in celebration of St. Patrick's Day. The middle pic on the bottom is the Confederate Memorial. There were several brides there having their wedding photos taken. Lots of picnics, throwing footballs, etc.

Spring Break....

The girls & I are on Spring Break this week....we just got home from a 4 day weekend. A much needed getaway....short & sweet. Me, Kayla, Mom, Cecilia and Gabi went to Savannah. We had a good time but there are not enough hours in a day. I'll definitely be going back....there were too many things we didn't get to do. We spent a lot of time with my good friend Paige who lives there now; we had our own personal tour guide. These are some random shots....fun times!

22 days & counting....

until my daughter turns 16. She keeps reminding me with a countdown. She is still holding onto bronchitis. Low oxygen level, coughing & wheezing, etc. She got an antibiotic shot, a seven day supply of antibiotics and she has to use her inhaler 3 times a day. We go back next week, she's had this in some form or another since December. We're going to a Pulmonologist at Children's but they can't see her until May. UGH!!!

On a better note, her incision in her tummy is almost completely closed....it only took a little over 2 months.

Beauty Walk....

Gabi was in a beauty walk at her school tonight. She didn't place but she had a good day full of pampering; she had her nails done then went to Sweet & Sassy to have her hair done. Then Kayla put a little make-up on her & got her dressed. BEAUTIFUL!!!

Banquet....

Gabi had her banquet tonight to celebrate the end of cheer leading season. They had a blast....I was out to our "Christmas" dinner at work so I have no pics. Gabi really enjoyed cheering so hopefully she'll do it again next year.
