MYRTLE BEACH VACATION 2021

[@sandytaylor9973]

What a sweet family. We’re watching Jaxon grow up right before our eyes. Family time is so precious.

[@DorsettDoorstep]

He sure is growing up fast! Just turned 13 yesterday!😳

[@lynnehampton1777]

Hi Arika. Looks like you all had a wonderful time ,even despite the jellyfish stings. Really enjoyed the video on Southport. I love the movie Safe Haven too and also One Tree Hill. I cant believe how much Jaxson has grown. He is such a happy kid. Thanka for sharing your vacation with us. Take care. God Bless

What a wonderful video to watch. I enjoyed it so much. I can remember the family vacation, when my girls were still at home. But now they make their own memories with their family. You guys looked like you had a great time. The dogs were so cute in their new harnesses. Great looking food too. Thank you so much for sharing. I love all your videos❤️

[@patrickandrews7893]

It was so much fun going along on vacation with you and your wonderful family! I will probably never see that area, so it was fun to see it. Thank you for taking us along!🥰

[@anakidder9602]

Love your vacation videos. We bicker back and forth a lot more on our vacations. 😂 I will have to watch Safe Haven again looks like soo much fun.

[@rhondasmith7127]

What a fun getaway cute cabin…….thank you for taking us along……blessings ❤️❤️❤️

[@elizabeth866]

Thank you for sharing your vacation vlog with us. Wow it's crazy I can't believe how much Jaxon has grown up before our very eyes. He is such a handsome young man. You have such a great loving family how refreshing it is to see a family together having fun together especially in this crazy world of selfishness. Your vlogs are inspiring and fun and also very motivational. Your children are so lucky to have such loving and caring parents. Your family vlogs show the love you have for one another. Stay safe and have a blessed week.

[@DorsettDoorstep]

Thank you so much my friend.🥰We are not perfect, but the love of a family is such a blessing.❤️

[@debrahigh9821]

Thanks for taking us along really enjoyed it, looks like everyone enjoyed it.

[@coracarp8859]

Love your vlogs, short or long. As much fun as vacations are, it’s so great coming home. For me, anyway. Glad you had a good time.

[@margeallen937]

What a beautiful family ❤️....Looks like so many great memories

[@BButtons76]

[@brendabright6232]

Wonderful vacation vlog, so much fun! Thanks for sharing, enjoyed it so much!

[@LifeWithTheLovedays]

ahhh you know Myrtle Beach will always be so special to me! Loved this. The ripley's aquarium is SO cool! Love it there. We have played putt putt at that same place. It's pretty fun!! That's so cool that you visited Southport!! I love that movie. We visited the battleship when I was a kid! I really loved this vlog! Thanks for sharing with us :)

[@DorsettDoorstep]

It was only my 4th going. Last time was when you got married! We made some great memories this time for sure.❤️

[@annegamble7698]

Love seeing you visit the places I like to go. This area, the NC barrier islands, has a lot to offer for families. And still close to the crazy SC nightlife!

[@DorsettDoorstep]

It is such a beautiful area!🥰

[@jessitapp2812]

Your family is soo precious!!! We feel like we went to Vacation with you guys, even though we were on vacation at the same time to California. My girls and I love all the videos. God bless you guys and thank you for sharing all of this with us

[@susanarmstrong9656]

Great vlog of your vacation. Really enjoyed watching you and your family! God bless y'all!

Good afternoon Arika and Marion and family and thank you for sharing your beautiful vacation with us

[@kathywood2721]

Thanks for sharing! I'm from Utah and probably will never see your side of the USA. Loved your video. Thanks for sharing the little town from the nickolas Sparks movie .I've read all his books.😍

[@saperryrn]

What a fun trip 😊. I’ll be moving to NC (from MD) and I’ll be 3 hours from MB, which is a day trip for me 🙃. Looking forward to it.

[@deborahandrew4129]

We love it here in N.C. We moved here to the mountains of Western N.C. from Florida almost 10 years ago. Best move we ever made.

[@saperryrn]

@@deborahandrew4129 I love the mountains! I’ll be moving to a suburb of Raleigh 😊

[@deborahandrew4129]

@@saperryrn, You will have the best of both worlds, The beach and the mountains without having to go too far from home! All in the same state! I kinda feel like we came back home with this move because our first home after getting married almost 48 years ago was at Ft Bragg when my husband was in the army over in Fayetteville. I know you will love it in N.C.

[@saperryrn]

@@deborahandrew4129 thank you! I am looking forward to the change 😊

[@susancollins1881]

How fun. Glad you had a nice vacation. Glad Belle was ok as well

Fun video! I haven't been to Myrtle Beach since I was a kid. Enjoyed your vacation.

[@diannearsenault3477]

What an amazing vacation vlog! Family time is precious!

[@lindafelder6385]

Hope I have her name right Marion is a pretty girl.

[@lindafelder6385]

Sorry got the name wrong Madison is a pretty girl sorry about that Marion.

[@iamwhoiamd7056]

You guys are an awesome family. I grew up tent camping myself, we used to go to Clearlake. It was such an awesome time. So happy to see you and your family having so much fun. It warns my heart.

[@kathyclarke5899]

Is there anything better than grilled HD and burgers when you're camping?!!!! Great video. Jellyfish can ruin a day at the beach huh? I could spend a whole day inside Ripleys aquarium. Love love love me some penguins. I'm glad you had a good time. And a safe trip. Have a great week.

[@queenofthehousehold]

Now I want to watch Safe Haven again! 😆 So fun you got to see all of that, and have a great vacation with your family! Thanks for taking us along.

[@DorsettDoorstep]

It was super cool! I watched it after we got back home.🤣

[@ginahernandez3219]

Very nice place! Looked like y’all had a very nice time. Thanks for sharing ❤️🏖

[@annegamble7698]

Fun to watch. Finishing up my last day at Holden Beach in NC. You would love it here.

[@patrobinson6478]

I always learn something from your videos! KOA and just watched Safe Harbor on this lazy Saturday morning!

[@dwynn57]

looks like you guys had so much fun! I looked up the movie references and I couldn't find one tree hill but I did find safe haven so I will be watching that! thanks so much for filming your vaca! it gives me ideas of where I would like to go! loved the vid! xoxo

[@cindimullen3954]

What a wonderful vacation. You all do so many wonderful things. Enjoy watching your videos.

[@deborahandrew4129]

I loved going along with you through your video. I can't believe you got on that huge ferris wheel! Those things terrify me! Poor little Bell. Our 13 year old beagle just finished a round of antibiotics for a urinary tract infection. Glad you made it back home. Vacations are so much fun but it's always good to get back home! Thanks for taking us along with you!

[@JeanneWalter]

What a great vacation! I love the ocean…not the jellyfish 😧. I bet the pups loved being someplace different and all the new smells! Just the feeling of not having to be anywhere at a certain time, that’s the best part of being on vacation. Just go at your own pace. I’ll have to check out that movie! I love little beach towns! So glad you all had a good time and made it home safe! ❤️

[@DorsettDoorstep]

Yes that’s so true. It was nice to just relax and enjoy each day the way we wanted to. The movie is so good! You should definitely see it!😀

[@JeanneWalter]

@@DorsettDoorstep Silly me! I get ready to watch the movie…I’ve seen it already and loved it! 🤦‍♀️.

[@Welsch.GF01]

Poor Belle Belle! Prob just anxiety.. folks don’t realize how stressful new places, smells, people, traveling and new surroundings can be for them and how, despite the wagging tail in the moment, are often not as enjoyable to them as it usually is for us:( I don’t travel as much anymore for this reason (I hate being away from my fur babies) but when I have to, I get a family member or friend they’re familiar with to check in or stay at my house so as not to disrupt their routine anymore than necessary. Glad she’s ok!!

[@belyndaperry7877]

I agree with another commenter that it was almost like being with you - in a good way!! We are alike in our food taste because Schlotszkys, Chuys and Fudruckers are some of my favorites, too. I love that you went back to where you and Marion had breakfast on your honeymoon. You could see how much fun this vacation was. So much to do and see and a good mix of things, too. Great idea to make the most of your trip back home. BTW, your pedicure looked so pretty.

[@DorsettDoorstep]

Thank you my friend! So glad you enjoyed coming along with us!😀

[@cherdunlop3600]

Omg, I used to live in Greenville SC...and loved going to the beach. Nothing like when the tide comes in. Most beautiful waves ever

[@DorsettDoorstep]

Yes! We loved the big waves!!

[@cherdunlop3600]

@@DorsettDoorstep they are indeed breath taking. Glad you had a wonderful time...

[@kelleysisler6158]

I'm absolutely in love with the Carolinas. My family and I went there a lot on our family vacation. I used to have a paper Pepsi cup full of shark teeth. You brought back so many memories to me today. Beautiful trip TFS.🙏🌹❤🐬

[@bullejanson]

Thank you for sharing your vacation, so much fun,and the beach was impressive :) I bet it was good to come home also? I had not heard about that movie,but found it here on youtube and watched it last night,really good movie. Have a blessed sunday

Hey friend, What a super fun vacation you all had! I love the beach so much. So glad Belle is good. Thanks for taking us along! 😁 We are desperately in need of a vacation. Would love to go to Myrtle Beach ⛱ 😍 but would settle for anything at this point lol. I've been taking care of my mom and sometimes you just need a break. Have a wonderful day! 🌺

[@DorsettDoorstep]

I hope you are able to get away sometime soon. We all need a break at times. Thanks so much for watching.❤️

Absolutely! I was very grateful!😀

[@cherdunlop3600]

I love Schlotzskys deli, you always go to my favorite places, first Chiys now there. We don't have one anymore. 😢... Glad you were able to enjoy a favorite from childhood... thanks for bringing us along, looks like an amazing time.

Looks like you had an amazing time..enjoyed watching..thanks for sharing!

That boardwalk used to be a huge 2 story arcade and on empty lot it was an amusement park. Me and my family vaca at Myrtle Beach because we live 2-1/2 hours out. We stay right by the huge Ferris wheel at Seaglass. It is pretty at night to sit in room and look at the lights at night. Myrtle Beach had alot of small hotels but the big ones came in and knocked them down for condos.

[@sandybuchanan3479]

Thanks for taking us along! Fun trip.
