I hope everyone had a great week. I had a wonderful week with my two youngest granddaughters visiting from Kentucky for Spring Break. The weather this week was picture perfect and they were able to enjoy the beach and pool in our subdivision, Magnolia Bay. They have to go home tomorrow, but fortunately, they will be spending the month of July with us this summer. Here is a picture of them enjoying the beautiful beaches of St. George Island.
