Myrtle Beach

After our long drive across country, we rested. Boy did it feel good to sleep in! We were staying at Merissa's in-laws house. We had this nice room above their garage to ourselves. It was so quiet in there, I could have slept all day.. but we had shopping to do! After lunch, we headed to the outlets (one of two in the Myrtle Beach Area!). We had a great time shopping. The next day, we did some more shopping as well. At night, we went to dinner at some great restaurants! Here are some pictures from the trip:my feet in the Atlantic Ocean!

Michelle will be living with Merissa and her family in little River- about 30 minutes from Myrtle beach- for a while. Michelle works in Little River too. I thought South Carolina was really neat. I loved the Myrtle Beach area, and the church people seem really nice. I think Michelle will be great there.

While I enjoyed my time there, I was really happy to be home. The South is a different place- even different than Texas (although, Texas is in a league of its own!). I don't think I could fit in there. I think this trip showed me how much I love California. When I stepped off the plane in Los Angeles and it was 68 degrees with very little humidity, I thought I was in Heaven! I'm glad to be home now.
