Almost time for a family vacation!

We are super excited and can't wait to hit the road. We are hoping the weather will hold out for us, it has been a nice 75 degrees and sunny in myrtle beach but when we leave this Friday they are saying mid 60's and rain during the week!! Let's hope not.... but we'll make the best of it either way. We own a timeshare so that makes taking these trips super cheap, the condo's didn't cost us a dime we just pay for gas, food and activities. I already booked the activities taking full advantage of online discounts and coupons (I'm super cheap!) so I think we will have a blast! Also planned the restaurants and did a rough estimate of food cost, hopefully it will be LESS then what we budgeted but we are a family of 5 and eating out can be pricey. Scott is taking the kids crabbing for the first time ever, it should be interesting to see what happens!



Here is a quick 35 second video of where we are staying the first day and night, Wyndham Sea Watch Plantation at Myrtle Beach. And a pic of the room layout.
