Bret Hightower was nice enough to plan a long weekend on Daufuskie Island for me and Ben as well as Sarah, John and Lauren. John, Bret and Ben all attended Colorado State together. In fact, John and Bret were both in our wedding. Bret's parents have a house on Daufuskie and Ben and I have visited several times--such a cool spot! For those of you unfamiliar with Daufuskie, it's a small island sandwiched in between Savannah and Hilton Head. You have to take a ferry or water taxi to get to the island and once there, everyone cruises around on golf carts. It's paradise! The golfing is great and the houses are gorgeous. We spent our nights on Hilton Head in Harbor Town and our days on Daufuskie hanging out with Bret's sister and her hubby and their two adorable tots. Plus, Matthew was in town all the way from Steamboat Springs, CO! Bret's parents are wonderful hosts and treated us to some great meals while we were visiting. The weather was kind of craptacular, but we had a fabulous time anyway!

Playing shuffle board at The Lodge on HHI. I felt kind of weird being so huge and pregnant while at a bar. But it's water in my cup, I swear!

Austin gets to grow old on Daufuskie--lucky dog!
All of the rainfall wreaked havoc on the unpaved cart paths. And of course we were dumb enough to try to get through.
The back of my favorite house on the island.....I wonder who lives there. I want to see inside this place so badly!
Heading out to play golf in the rain.
CSU Rams!
