Mrytle Beach

We took a short trip to Mrytle Beach at the 1st of Sept to celebrate Zac's 29th :0 birthday and to visit his family. We had a great time mostly laying out on the beach and eating... way to much! Zac's dad spent quite a bit of time hunting for shark's teeth while we were there and he ended up coming home with quite a collection. We saw a few sharks while we were there jumping out of the water chasing fish. Zac seemed to want to go into deeper water after seeing the sharks...me on the other hand not so thrilled. I love the ocean and something about being there always makes me want to think a little deeper, try to hear what God is speaking to me. I don't know if its the wind always whipping, or the waves crashing, just something about it makes me think He is trying to speak. I wish I would have listened a little harder while we were there though, its always in the early morning or the late evening when things start to settle down that I feel His presence the most. I feel like the weekend went by way to fast and I had way to much on my mind to enjoy it to the fullest. That and the fact that Mrytle Beach is not exactly quiet and serene. As much as I love the ocean though it will never compare to my love for the mountains! I didn't end up taking many pictures but here are a few from the short weekend.
