Cumberland

As we drove down the Exit 1, St. Marys, Georgia, ramp, I even began to question my decision to plan a weekend trip to Cumberland Island.  Afterall, it was only a few days prior that Graham went up and down a map of the east coast guessing every possible town a person could visit.  Only to make one final guess that sounded something like this... "and please don't tell me we are going to St. Marys". Afterall Trip Advisor has the Georgia Welcome Center as the number two place to visit while in St. Marys and its currently closed.

Luckily I know both of us pretty well and St. Marys was the perfect place to spend the weekend.  Of course, Cumberland Island was our true destination.

 Cumberland Island is rich in history.  The beauty of this relatively untouched barrier island is glorious.  Both Graham and I left Cumberland wanting to know more and looking forward to future trips.

 

Eight Years...

 Ellison Adele is 8.  In a way it is hard for this Momma to believe.  Afterall, wasn't she just learning to walk yesterday?  To say it has been a pleasure to watch Ellison grow over the last few years is a complete understatement.  I could not be more proud of this girl.  She is bright, funny, compassionate, and a really good person.  She makes her dad and I proud, each and every day.
