The vacation began with Starbucks and ended with sunshine – 2 things I definitely miss in Sweden. In between, there was girls' night out for drinks and pommes frites, walking in Wash Park, Sophie's first trip to an aquarium and a zoo, PF Changs!, fresh crabs with South Carolina microbrews, and much more. Oh yeah, and I also donated 8 inches of hair for wigs for women with cancer. A glimpse of my new 'do is below. I needed to get rid of the ponytail look, and it was for a good cause. I go back to work two days a week starting on Monday, so I guess it's my new working mom hairdo.
We had a great time, and being at the beach in Pawleys Island, South Carolina, has been very relaxing. It's amazing how much sunshine affects mood. We're very depressed to get on the plane back to Sweden tomorrow knowing that we won't see the sun until April.
(I just noticed that she's flipping me off!)
*jealous* I want sun too! Below freezing here this morning. :(
Have a safe trip "home." :)

Today = fantastic sunshine. But I know what you mean, the darkness depresses. The hair looks fantastic as do the holiday pictures. I do long for the beach (warm and sunny beach) now.

Ginny, both you and Sophie look adorable. I love the new 'do. See you Monday!

Wow. Those pictures are making me so jealous. And all the "latte, PF Changs and S.Carolina crabs" talk... No wonder Sophie was giving you the finger :-)
