Life is Good...and so is the 4th of July!!!!

So today was amazing. As you know Janine and David Brown have been visting with us this week. Today we woke up and made a trip to Krispy Kreme donuts for breakfast. If you haven't had a hot now donut....you don't know what you're missing. They taste so amazing and just literally melt in your mouth. So that was the start of the day, I had five total donuts....3 hot now glazed donuts, a manager's special, and a creme filled donut with coffee. Then we made our way out to John's Island to see a tree. Yes a tree called Angel Oak. This thing is humungous!!!! If you've ever seen the movie Avatar and the home tree then this is similar. Unfortunately it was closed but we were lucky enough that the lady was there for about a minute and said we could take a quick look which we did and Tara had the picture. We want to go back when its actually open and take a better look around this amazing tree. Next adventure we went to Jack's Cosmic Dogs. Its an amazing hot dog place that I've already eaten at five times!!! I get the Blue Galatic Dog with fries and of course its delicious. We then went to a cook out....I know we just ate hot dogs but we wanted to hang out with our friends from Seacoast Church, Lauren and Brian. We hung out for awhile and met some great new people. Tara and I are so thankful that God let Noah meet these wonderful people and allowed them to be in our lives as well! After hanging out for a bit we decide to head out to the beach at Isle of Palms. This beach is really nice and we spent the majority of the evening hanging out on the beach and in the ocean. As the evening went on we became hungry and ate at a place called the Banana Cabana which was really good. I got the cheeseburger and fries and it was delicious. We ate outside on the balcony and it was great. We walked around afterwards waiting for the fireworks before heading back down to the beach to set up a spot. While we were waiting for the fireworks to begin we can see other fireworks off in the distance and they were fantastic! That would've been enough but we could see two other sets of fireworks along the coast. We believe the closest ones were from Sullivan's Island then Patriot's Point and the farthest from us was Folly Beach. Amazing. Then we enjoyed our fireworks which last about 30 minutes with a great finale!!!! Oh what a day with the wife and friends!!! Moral of this story...life is good....and so is the 4th of July!!!
