Babymoon. I highly recommend it!
The excitement of Baby Snowden’s arrival has reached an all
time high around our house and with that Honey and I also have a lengthy to-do
list. Our Babymoon allowed us to relax…get away…reconnect… and just BE.
So what’d we do? Where’d we go? We went to Amelia Island,
FL. We had never been there before, the plane ride was one hour and ten minutes
– can’t beat that when you’re expecting – and there is lots and lots to do
there!
Here is our Babymoon in pictures, enjoy!

On Monday, our last full day of vacation, Honey planned an amazing day for us over on Cumberland Island. They only allow 6 people per day to come to the island as day guests of the historic Greyfield Inn - formerly a private residence owned by the Carnegie Family. The island is filled with wild horses, historic sites, and only a handful of (WEALTHY) private residences. It was a day we will never forget!

 |
| There was no one else on this expansive stretch of beach! |
 |
| We toured the ruins of the original Carnegie Mansion |

We had such a wonderful time!! We can't wait to go back and take our little family with us. I highly recommend Amelia Island with a day trip to Cumberland Island as a great get-away!!
