Mimi was turning 70, so the whole family spent a week at Holden Beach to celebrate.

Her only request? That we all attend her party on the beach in costumes that related to the ocean. It was a week of fireworks, kite flying, parasailing, and the sweet sound of crashing waves outside our beach houses. Mimi and Papa know how to age gracefully...and generously.




















Happy birthday to my sweet Mom who doesn't look a day over 50.
Seventy looks good on you, girl!
