Savannah, Georgia and Lake Murray, South Carolina!

We spent Labor Day weekend visiting Jeff's parents in South Carolina at their new lakehouse, and we had such a lovely time! Jeff's brothers were able to make the trip for the weekend as well, and it was so nice to have the whole family together!

Jeff and I used reward miles for our airline tickets, so we ended up flying into Savannah, GA and then driving three hours to South Carolina. The driving part was annoying, but we got to spend Friday night and Saturday morning in Savannah! We'd love to go back for a weekend and see more of the city another time, but we really enjoyed our stay at the River Street Inn and breakfast at Huey's on the River (mmm, peaches 'n cream French toast!).

River Street Inn is an old cotton warehouse, and it was right on the river. Just beautiful!

We spent a quick half hour exploring Savannah before we drove to South Carolina, and it was so pretty! I loved the cobblestone streets.

I hardly pulled out my camera the whole time we were at the lake (there was lots of relaxing, and not a lot of photographing), but I did get a couple photos of the lake from the screened porch (my favorite spot in the house!).

Our visit was much too quick, but at least we were able to be there for a few days! I hate that South Carolina is so far away... we'll never be able to get out there as often as we'd like, but we're really happy that Jeff's parents are able to retire in their dream location!
