So, two weekends ago my friends and I all headed to Hilton Head. A trip we started planning around Christmas time and when the time had finally come, we could hardly stand it! I think me, of all us girls, probably needed it most due to the fact of how much I've been working. It's been a solid work time for the past 2 months and although I got a 11 day break while in England, I couldn't truly let any of it go since there was so much to edit when I got back! It was overwhelming.
But in preparation for Hilton Head, I got allllllll my work caught up, organized, and ready so when I hit the beach, I could lay there and think about nothing but that moment. Soak in the sunshine and enjoy the company of my friends in which I don't get to see as much anymore. We all lead such different lives at this moment in time. But, during this trip, we were all one, together, talked, laughed, explored, played. It was absolute, total fun and we were all sad when it came to an end.
I actually didn't take many pictures while I was down there! And due to the beach with sand, heat, everything else, I took my older camera with me instead. My good ol' Sony DSC H-7 (which actually got me started into photography) because it's reliable in battling the elements! Plus I don't have to be scared of ruining my entire business with one drop :P I'm waiting to get together with them so we can all exchange our pictures from the trip. They got some really really good ones of all of us :)
But here are some of mine....
View from the Crazy Crab. It was spectacular and so was my Mango Pina Colda!
We were smart and hit all the restraunts during happy hour ;)
This is Julia and all of her awesomeness. I love her tattoo she just recently got.
This is the lovely Jessie! Her and I have been friends since we were like 9. Love this girl to death.
We got to see dolphins!!!! As we were sailing across Broad Creek in our boat, one jumped RIGHT out of the water next to me and I was the only person that was looking right that way. As silly as it sounds, I felt like that dolphin jumped out the water just to say hello to me since we looked DEAD at each other <3
I am not sure when we will do a trip like this again. Like I said all of our lives are so different from one another it's getting harder and harder to get together more often than not. As you can see one of us is having a baby. I myself am starting a business and freelancing myself into the adult world. The other is going to school full time to be a part of the medical industry one day. And the other, is completely free and figuring things out as she goes. One day we will all be on the same road but for now, it's awesome to watch all of us grow in such different directions as we make our footprints in life <3
This trip was exactly what we needed together. I hope we can do it again next year.
PS: Video Blog will hopefully come soon!! :D
