Hilton Head 2011

Three years ago, Nicky's family started a tradition of going to Hilton Head, South Carolina for a family vacation. It's one of the things I most look forward to every year.

Although many aspects of the trip are the same, we try to do something different each year. This year, Nicky's parents, Nicky and I went a couple of days earlier than the rest of the family so that we could tour Savannah, GA. The small town was so beautiful, and the history was so interesting.



We ate at Uncle Bubba's - a Paula Deen restaurant!

That's some good eatin', y'all!

I highly recommend the trolley tour!



Another addition to this year's trip was the First Annual Shrimp Cook-Off!
There was a little bit of trash talking going on as we each prepared our shrimp!

There were 6 entries in the First Annual Shrimp Cook-Off!

Nanny, Nicky and I tied for 1st place with our shrimp dishes. Ben was the M.C. of the award ceremony.
The official trip t-shirt was a tradition that started last year. Here's a look at this year's shirt:


This is one of Pop's favorite quotes - the guys found it to be appropriate when referring to their shrimping adventures.

Gan and the guys!
Hilton Head is nothing but a good time with family!

The guys plus Gan!

I can't wait to see what new traditions we make next year!
