This past weekend was one of those weekends that just made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. No big ticker tape parade, big shopping trip or monumental life moment this time, but none the less a truly great weekend filled with laughter and some of my favorite things.
Scott and I made it to our first "Shaggin on the Cooper". He tried to slide a few other ideas onto our plate and even procrastinated getting ready. Dancing is not one of his favorite pastimes. I LOVE to dance and haven't done nearly enough of it in the past few years. I know it was a true gift of love for him to concede and go along with my party plan! The band came thru with more than just shaggin music, playing some Van Morrison and a little Motown. We tried to do that thing we see the kids do and take a self pic....here it is post dancing our little feet off...
Sunday morning on the "camp Jerilyn plan" was kayaking around IOP. I found a jewel on the Nile. We started out of the marina and decided to cruise through Wild Dunes. Lots of boats and big houses. Fun dreaming. But the jewel came as we turned the corner and the houses disappeared and all we could see was water and reeds... birds...fish jumping in the water like acrobats and the most wonderful sound of nothing but mother nature. I have a quote on one of the walls in our home (yes, the kids make fun of all my motivational plaques) ...."Take time for the quiet moments, as God whispers and the world is loud". I could hear him whispering. It took my breath away!
The day finished off with Sunday night dinner at Morgan Creek grill at the dock. More fun music and a beautiful sunset! A sweet southern weekend, Charleston style.
