Christmas at the Beach

My parents are selling their beach house that we have been going to for years now, so we wanted to get a last trip in early Dec. We traveled for a short 3 day weekend and enjoyed shopping, seeing the Brookgreen Garden lights, and going to Ricky and Carla's house for a Christmas dinner and gift exchange. The girls received many cute gifts they loved, and we watched polar express. We will miss our family beach home but will go back lots throughout the year and rent. I guess we are no longer locals :-(
