Our Charleston South Carolina Thanksgiving Trip


We went to Charleston, SC to visit Doc's dad and step-mom for Thanksgiving. We had so much fun!!! Here are just a few pictures of our trip. We took a carriage ride through downtown Charleston and we saw many historical homes and buildings. We also walked the streets of downtown Charleston and let Christie and Degan be the tour guides. Which I think that was the best part of the trip! We learned so much about the architecture of the homes and buildings thanks to Degan and Christie. We took a ferry to Fort Sumpter which was where the Civil war began. Austin and Degan went to Fort Moultrie while Christie gave Doc and Brandon a tour of the whole city by car meanwhile I was at the house taking a nap. I was so tired. One night we took a tour of Charleston's most haunted building...THE JAIL. The tour guide told us to take pictures because the night we went there it was a "historical night." What our tour guide was talking about was orbs! (ghosts) Supposedly, if you took pictures these orbs would show up in your pictures. Our tour guide told Austin that one of his pictures had an orb in it also Brandon had a few orbs in his pictures. Whatever! It just looked like little tiny balls of bright light in the pictures. Overall, we stayed very busy site seeing and doing the things we wanted to do and we still were unable to see everything but we had a WONDERFUL time and we would recommend going if you have never been...it's great!!!! Thanks Degan and Christie :)

How fun!! I love Southern states. I'm starting to miss the little towns. I see a little baby bump starting to show! It's so cute! WOW! I never knew Degan moved away. I'm so happy for you all.
