Our vacation started at 4 am last Saturday. We figured that we would be better off putting the babies in their car seats and getting some road time in while they were sleeping. It worked! Our first destination was Summerville, SC. I grew up in Summerville and we still have friends down there. The babies slept almost the whole ride. We stopped at a Holiday Inn, slipped into the lobby, and used their microwave to heat up some milk. We feed them in the parking lot and then went to Shoney's to get some breakfast. We did not get to visit all of our friends in Summerville, but were able to see Judy, Angie, and Elsie at Flowertown Florist. Here's a shot of the crew. 
Another reason we stopped there was so that the babies could see one of my siblings - Specks. He is a Yellownape Amazon Parrot that I grew up with. He relocated back to Summerville a few years ago and lives at the flower shop. He loves all the attention he gets there and the babies were fascinated with him.
Time was ticking and we needed to get to Edisto Island. We were staying the first night of our vacation there to attend my cousins wedding. They got married out on the beach and it was really nice but also extremely HOT. Here's a shot of the crew hitting the beach in their wagon. 
We were able to stay with a college friend and his wife. They live on the island and were nice enough to let us take over the 2nd floor of their home. The babies loved it. The space was wide open and they were amazed at the Boar Head (not deli meat at Publix) that was mounted on the wall. 
Jessica had to head out to work before we could get a picture but we did get one with Johnny.
Thanks again for letting us take over your house.

Jennifer loved working there and one of her friends was on call and working so we went to see her. Here's a shot with Kathy. 
Now we are off to Myrtle Beach for a week of fun in the sun!!!
Oh, for those of you who were wondering how you pack to travel with triplets,this is what the truck looked like. I did have a trailer lined up as a back up if everything did not fit but it did.
