So our trip to Hilton Head got off to an interesting start. We arrived to find out that our rooms had been mixed up and ALL of us were supposed to squeeze into 2-1 bedroom studios...yes, thats 10 people. um, it was so small, there was no room on the floor for James' air mattress so he would have to sleep on a bunk bed that was in the wall in the hall, on the top since Jayce is 2 and would need the bottom...oh and it had no latter. Yes,....oh and the only place for the pak-n-play for Eliza was in the kitchen. Yes thats right. My hopes for any kind of sleep and relaxation were falling to the floor and I was stressing Trey out with the my stress, and was ready to turn around and drive home. After returning to the front desk for a 3rd time (the first 2 times we were told there were no 2 bedrooms available) they miraculously found one....Praise God. I was really ready to find another room at another hotel. But God provided.
We have enjoyed worship with the band. They are awesome as usual. Its really cool to see how they engage the teens in worship. This morning Trey and Neil were dueling a song out...Trey singing the girl part in his best Hannah Montana voice and Neil singing the guys part in his wanna be Barry White voice. Too funny. All the while Jayce and James are playing drums in the back to the music on sand buckets, which they broke after the second song. Yes, James has now broken his first snare head....but they entertained themselves. Last night during worship, Eliza entertained herself with some of the sand toys too. There was a rather large sand shovel. It was about as long as she was....she was trying desperately trying to take that shovel to the stage, she really thought Trey needed a shovel! But overall they have been great, their usual charming selves.
Turns out Eliza does like the sand and waves. She took off all by herself toward the water! And James was much less scared too. Although there is no comparing the beauty of the gulf to the east coast, the waves are smaller with no undertoe and the sand is packed so much much less messy. It made for happy kids. And of course I took no pictures. I have big plans for that today. So we are good and having fun. And most importantly the campers seem to be having a blast too.
