South Carolina Part 1

We had the opportunity to visit my mom and dad last week in Union, South Carolina. Since they have only lived there for 6 months, we had many new sights to see. We were fortunate to have my two sisters, Emily and Heather, drive out to visit with us. David had such a blast with his cousins. He has informed us that when he gets big he wants to move next to "Grandma M" (Mumford) in South Carolina.

When we first arrived, we took a short trip to Greenville falls. The park was filled with flowers and swings. We couldn't help but sit and relax for a few hours.



My dad is part of the Rotary Club in Union. They held a BBQ at this old mansion, home of Governor Gist, who convinced South Carolina to secede from the Union, which eventually led to the civil war.

James and his cousin, Julia, were misbehaving during the tour, so grandpa got to babysit.
By the end of the week, they became really good buddies. It was sad to say goodbye, knowing that this duo won't see each other again for quite a while.
