Last Stop: Shamus & Karen's

Our last stop on our vacation was to stay a night at Shamus and Karen's house in South Carolina. Shamus and Gene are cousins, and we just love hanging out with this fun couple! They have one son, too, so it was a lot of fun to get to spend some time with them (and some extra time with Aunt Judy & Uncle Jim, too, since they live close by).

the boys whip up breakfast for dinner...Shamus on pancakes and Gene on eggs

The only type of eggs that I'll eat are my dad's special eggs that he made for us growing up. Karen remembered having them at our house at one point so she bought the ingredients so Gene could make them for everyone. Nothing too special...just some Velveeta cheese & Season All seasoned salt. Gotta love using fake cheese in a recipe.

Callan found Jay's walker to be intriguing

they took us downtown where there was a beautiful park to walk through and a fountain play area

this one is just right!

(this is the most hideous picture of me...this is what a pregnant lady looks like after walking around in the sweltering southern heat)

beautiful scenery around us!

Uncle Jim & Aunt Judy graciously treated us all to a fulfilling meal at Sticky Fingers
before we climbed back into our car for the 8 hour ride home.
