Thatcher's Story

Thatcher's Story
I didn't want this to get lost in my list of posts, so I am creating a place so that everyone can easily access this link. Please read this touching story about baby Thatcher, our friends son who was born with a rare liver disease and is in need of a liver transplant. Jessie has worked closely with Brad for over 4 years and I became friends with her while working at WSA until I left last spring. Thatcher was born a month before Braden and this story really hits home for me. When I look at Braden I think about how incredibly lucky I am. This could just as easily be our him going through this. Jessie will most likely be the living donor for Thatcher and they are in need of our prayers! I promise you will be touched by reading this story. Thanks!

Hilton Head

The week before last Brad and I went to Hilton Head for 4 days. Brad went for work and I was drug along with him...I tell ya it was a hard decision to make :) Connor stayed with Nonna and Grandy and was so excited about his vacation as well!

My mornings were spent at the beach and by the pool, and then when Brad got back in the afternoon we would go to the Verizon Heritage PGA golf tournament. This area is so beautiful! It was the first time for both of us at Hilton Head. We hope to go back soon with two kids in tow!

My morning walks on the beach...
My view from the pool. Usually I would rent a umbrella and chair at the beach but since we left everyday at noon there was really no point. I don't think that this view was that bad! I loved the hammocks that they had at the resort. The best was watching people flip out of them multiple times. Pretty sure that if I flipped out even once, I wouldn't try to do it again. LOL :)
One of my favorite things about the low country...the moss covered oaks.

Jim Furyk in the lead...

Brad and I on the 18th hole. It was so pretty because it followed the edge of the water and the lighthouse in the background.
I really wanted to go in the lighthouse but you couldn't get near it because there were a lot of people hanging out in the area and I am pretty sure they knew nothing about the golf tournament they were supposed to be there for.
Boo in his camo...I wasn't very impressed by his attire but I guess you could say its different!
Sitting at the #2 tee. As you can see we had great seats!
Jim Furyk on Sunday...we didn't stay long enough to see the play off :(

For those of you who have been asking for belly pics...here you go. Pretty sure I am as big now as I was at 6 or 7 months preggo with Connor!
