Getaway...

Jamie had the weekend off, so we decided to make the most of the beautiful weather, and spend it at the beach. We left Saturday for Jekyll, and spent the night. Unfortunately, it's crunch time for me, so I worked on school work all the way there, most of the time away, and all the way back...booo. We all got burned to a crisp, despite our best efforts at avoiding it. Bailey and Emi have never gotten burned before, and don't know quite what to make of the misery. I could cry...BAD MOMMY!! Since we obviously couldn't go back to the beach today, we opted for the turtle center instead. It's actually really neat, and the girls loved it. You get to walk through the life cycle of sea turtles, and see what we can do to protect them. There is a window into the "hospital" where you can watch the staff work on turtles. Then you can go out to the actual hospital, where the turtles are in big tanks. Each one has a notebook telling why they are there, what treatment they've had, and how you can help. After all of that, the grumpiness and misery of the sunburn had taken its toll...so we admitted defeat and headed home. I took a ton of pics on the beach, but I'm too tired to attempt to upload them right now...maybe tomorrow.
