Gil and Kelly currently have nine children that are in homeschool. Katie is currently finishing up her senior year while Jeb is currently in first grade. Carlin has decided to help with the homeschool and many of the kids are saying that she is so fun.
Gil and Kelly gather a few of their children to go visit Mama Jane's sisters at Myrtle Beach. They end up renting a home with a in-ground pool. The family ends up riding their bikes to Mama Jane's beach home. Since the family is not wearing their helmets, UP TV wants to encourage riders to wear their helmets and be safe.
Gil is so excited to introduce his aunts and uncles to a few of the kids since most of them have never met them. Erin reveals that her father was beaming. The family heads to enjoy a meal at Dockside Seafood house which was a nex experience for the family since they do not like seafood and can't stand the smell of it. Judson reveals that he ate it since he normally sees food on his plate and will eat it. The family also tries shrimp and oysters and are not huge fans of them.
Even through that it's February and a bit cool outside, the family still wants to see the sunset on the beach. Since, Carlin has her boyfriend there, she wants to take photos. Warden reveals that they finally got him out of there.
Since the boys are playing football, Carlin has a chat with Papa Bill. She reveals that she is currently working on her bachelor's degree for education and has been taking music classes that will help her teach. Carlin reveals that once she and Evan get married, she is moving to Nashville.
The next day, the family heads for a walk. Gil remembers his aunts were walking machines. Gil is pretty sure that his aunts could still walk out his kids.
Gil takes a few of the children to go fishing at Cherry Grove Fishing Pier. The Pier is known for being a record-breaking shark being caught. Gil remembers that he spent a lot of time of his childhood there however today's weather was not in their favor and they called it a day without any fish.
Since February 17th is Jackson and Addallee's birthdays, the family gathers to celebrate it. Gil reveals something that is special for him is hearing the kids say something special about their siblings.
As many of you know that Addee stopped breathing when she was a newborn and is lucky to be alive. Kelly shares with Addallee that she can remember that day since Jackson had conviced himself that you were his birthday present. Kelly reveals that they were crying in fear but Jackson was worried that they were stealing his birthday present.
