Way Back When-esday - By The Sea

Dateline: August 2005

Twins' Age: Almost 4

Seems both like yesterday, and an eternity ago. 

A generous Hilton Head trip for our family of four from Grandma and Grandpa Lage, made memorable by so many things:

A morning shore full of live starfish

An elderly couple across the hall enamored of D & S ("You can call me Bubbe.")

She-Twin plowing through three sketch pads

He-Twin setting a record for fish stick consumption (19, for the curious...)

A boat tour with Captain Sonny

Prayers, broken hearts, and some guilt that as we summer-ed, Hurricane Katrina was ravaging NoLA

This winter, after a pandemic-cancelled 2020 Lagefest, our extended family returns to Hilton Head for more memories to be made. Imagine I'll still see these wee faces in my mind's eye...
