Fun in the Sun

We had an amazing vacation in North Carolina with my entire family. The house we stayed was right on the beach. The kids would go searching for crabs at night and we laid on the beach during the day. We had a couple days of rainy weather but the guys enjoyed the huge waves the storm brought in. My family is pretty loud and rambunctious but Mike survived. Here are just a few of the 160 pics I took while in the Outer Banks.


On our way to the beach house after a long day of traveling. We woke Kade up at 5:30 am to catch our flight. He only slept about a half hour of our 5 hours on the plane. Luckily he slept pretty much our entire ride in the car from the airport to the house. (3 hours)

We made a quick stop in Virginia Beach for dinner, a stroll on the boardwalk, and shopping.

Kade backing up over the car tracks. They were giving him some difficulty so he decided to go down them like he goes down the steps.

Glam shots!! Kade posing for a picture before heading off to the beach.

Playing in the sand.

Watching the playoffs on the big screen.

On one of the rainy days we went to the aquarium. Kaden loved all the fish and back up and screamed when the shark swam up to the glass.

Mike looking hot in his wetsuit.

( I don't know how to rotate the picture. Mike will have to do it when he gets home. Hopefully he doesn't delete it.)

The waves don't look that big in the picture but they were huge. I just took a couple pictures and then had to go in because I was freaking out thinking one of my family members might not survive the night.

I gave the boogie board a shot the next day when the waves weren't so big.

He would find a stick to play with each day we went to the beach.

My last day on the beach with my sisters. Mike had to pretty much drag me off the beach so we could catch our flight home.

Eight Days and Counting

Only eight days till my entire family gets together in Outer Banks, NC. I didn't think we would be able to go due to all the testing we do at school during the month of May. Luckily everything fell into place, we finish testing next week and we will be able to go. Mike and I are very excited to go on a vacation. Our vacations the past few years have been to Ohio and Colorado to visit our families. Which we love to do but a change of scenery will be great. I am a little nervous to fly with Kaden. It is hard enough to keep him entertained during church. I will be packing lots of treats and toys. Here is where we will be staying.
