Earlier this week Lilly and I packed up for a short momma + daughter trip to Tybee Island, GA. We were invited down to stay at my friend Gray’s friend Meredith’s family beach house. Get that? Just some mommas and their babes having some old school beachy fun. We brought a sitter down with us so that we could relax a little – it was nice to have an extra hand when bellies started growling or when a baby needed to take a nap. And she came in extra handy at bedtime so we moms could get out and explore Tybee (it was my first visit).
Meredith’s beach house is seriously one of the coolest homes I’ve ever had the pleasure of being in. It’s 110 years old and is full of character. I kinda can’t even put it into words, but it was straight up dreamy. Plus, you could just throw open a porch door (there were countless porches that all wrapped around and connected to one another) and find yourself looking at the beach. Lilly and I were in Heaven.
Anway, you know that Lilly and Farris are besties. So it was only natural that many photo opportunities presented themselves over the course of our stay. Gray managed to catch a few good moments…
We’re so blessed to have these memories. I think Lilly and I need to take off more often… Thanks for having us down, Meredith!
All pictures of the girls captured by Gray Benko’s iphone. More pictures from one of our beach days coming next week.
PS – while we’re talking about momma and daughters – I’d like to wish my Mom a happy birthday today!
[…] and we had such a nice time. We did this last summer as well (see the pictures from that trip in this post) and I can only hope we get to do it again next year. It’s a laid back sort of place and […]
Pretty lucky, huh?
they are so stinkin cute and how awesome to have Gray as a BFF to document for you!
We really did and just didn’t have enough time. I’m def looking you up next time when I have more time.
Gray recommends PicTapGo! I need to check it out, too :)
Thanks Michelle. We did – the sitter helped with that too :)
This was our first and it was definitely worth the time. I want to do another one soon.
I want to print one for Lil’s room. Maybe the one where they’re looking in the mirrors :)
We really did. Thanks Gaby!
Chassity, so glad y’all enjoyed Tybee! I know you were on a mother-daughter trip this time, but if you come back this way, we have to grab a drink (and maybe some lobster tacos at Social)! these pics are too cute!!

I don’t have kids yet, but you’ve totally inspired me to plan little weekends away with my future children. Such great memories for all of you!
Looks like the absolute best weekend…that house is so beautiful! And I’m smitten with those two little ones, they are just the cutest!!
what a wonderful memory and these girls will cherish these images for the rest of their lives! :-)
Those photos of the two girls are so precious! Sounds like you guys had a ball! xo
