Erica's 33rd Birthday

Getting older, but so far I've loved the 30's, so no complaints! Chris isn't in any of these pictures, as you can guess he was TAKING the pictures. Kraft Mac & Cheese is my favorite food in the world! I got a case of this from the grocery store, from Nannie, when I turned 4 years old, so to get this for my birthday now, is the real icing on the cake for me!

Edisto in March

We went to Edisto with dad and Gail. Robyn stayed with us for the weekend and we celebrated my birthday. Dad and Gail gave me the most beautiful clock for my birthday - it was SO special!



This is Big Ben - he remains the Oyster Factory Road Dog who always stays with dad and Gail when they go to visit.


Dad and I decided to get a little creative with GOOP and a sink faucet that doesn't work! David (pronounced De-vid) sets his crab traps out off of one of dad's docks. He's a great guy with the best gullah accent. He gave us 6 huge stalks of collards that day - umm, yum.


Dad always sets his American flag out on the dock and this year, we got some excitement putting up Christmas lights along the dock railing. Dad had already decorated the anchor!

It is a true Wildlife Preserve in this area.

Dad showing us his new boat-lift on the dock. Edisto is where dad (and myself) feel quite at home.

Snow Day - February 2009

We got about 5 inches of snow! Plenty to play-in, good for making snowballs and build a snowman. We had a large pine tree fall in the night into our neighbor's yard - that's actually how we MET our neighbors. Up until then, we had never spoken.
