We spent some time getting Kyndal used to the sand and water. She never got used to the water. She didn't even like it when we stood in the waves. She did however get used to the sand and liked picking up seashells.
We went down with all of our sand castle gear and Kyndal built her first sand castle.
This is the view from the pier.
The weather got quite a bit cooler and windy the last few days we were there. We took a drive one afternoon and wanted to see where everyone on the island went surfing.
Kyndal didn't get to see it because she fell asleep in the car (the one and only day with-out a nap). We thought the dunes and fence and reeds were beautiful.
Kyndal did get to see the lighthouse earlier in the week because we had a local photographer take our family photos with the lighthouse in the background. We haven't seen the photos yet, but I will be sure to share when I get them. I didn't have time to take photos of Kyndal at this spot when we were there for our portraits, because Kyndal had to pee-pee and refused to go in the sand. We had to trek back to the car for her to use her little potty. The day she napped in the car, I made my way back out there to take some pictures of the lighthouse while Daddy and a napping Kyndal waited for me in the car. 
We actually got to see 4 lighthouses on our trip. The two pretty ones were featured on this blog. We also saw a sqwatty one that I didn't take pictures of and some new modern triangular one that I thought was very ugly. It was the replacement for this lighthouse. This one used to be on and island but the island is now been washed away and they had to reinforce the land that this lighthouse sits on to keep it standing. It is pretty cool that it is completely surrounded by water!
This post wraps up the blogging on our vacation. We were glad we got to visit some new places, it has been a while since we have done that. It was nice for Kyndal to see so many new things on our trip. I would certainly go back to Charleston, we have a dozen more things we could have done while we were there!

You took some gorgeous pictures of the lighthouses. They would make great framed art.
Thanks, I can't wait to get our family pictures. I was hoping to have one canvas of just the lighthouse, one of the family, and one of Kyndal going up the stairway wall.
