love grown golden


It is very, very hot on Hilton Head Island in July. You're welcome for that weather update.

But the heat didn't stop our family from enjoying a week with the extended Betz clan!
From morning coffee on the patio to late night movie marathons and past-bedtime Cheerwine ice cream floats, our days were full of favorite things. The boys alternated between the resort pool and the beach routine, with lots of creature catching in between, things like toads and lizards and lettered snails. There were cousin sleepovers and jigsaw puzzles and shark excursions, double rainbows and seafood boils and too many sand dollars to count. We celebrated a fifty year union with lunch at Links and wiffle ball in the sand, with sunset kite flying and *without* alligators.
Endless sunscreen and laughter and bourbon may be one of the best concoctions a long marriage can brew.
