I'm sure memories are just like I heard someone say on a podcast today about people: you may not remember the details but you remember them overall.
Pictures will help with remembering the details! I did leave out the pics of the people taking turns being sick in the room- not the most fun part of our trip :)
 |
| We had lots of fun in the game room- the NC game was a new addition. So were the new good ping-pong players- amazing how much better the kids have gotten! |
 |
| We watched lots of beautiful sunrises and sunsets from the balcony and the beach! |
 |
| Too cold for ocean swimming but we had lots of fun in the sun! And found cool shells! |
 |
| Amazing to sit and see God's beautiful sun and ocean (and cute kids too!) |
 |
| We love this place! |
 |
| And we had an amazing day for Jockey's Ridge- perfect temp, almost no wind, beautiful! |
 |
| Love! |
 |
| Rolling down sand dunes- sandy but fun! |
 |
| Our new favorite part of the Wright Brothers National Monument is the hands on model- perfect place for a picnic and pretend! |
 |
| We also spent a lot of time on the tennis court. Our big four were in the middle of 6 weeks of free tennis clinic which made it even more fun to go practice new skills! |
 |
| Kids love our souvenir shop (AKA Good will/ thrift shop)- KG was so happy with these roller blades! And the boys each found nice shirts- can't beat the price. |
 |
| our newest walker loved the deck! |
 |
| We saw deer several nights as we went to see the sunset by Sunset Grill |
 |
| Ts half birthday breakfast! My favorite 8 year old boy wasn't feeling his best that morning but it was great to spend some time just me and T! |
 |
| We were excited to get to go on a ranger lead trip looking for animal signs. We rode on the 4WD only beach area. We saw signs of horses but no horses. Still fun! |
 |
| Love this bridge and our tree! |
 |
| Even V enjoyed Roanoake Island- learning about Native Americans here! |
 |
| And settlers! |
 |
| They welcomed our school trip there with blacksmith, coopering, and woodworking classes! |
 |
| Our lunch out- yum! |
 |
| Kids enjoyed our scavenger hunt from the OBX Barrier Island Station |
 |
| V helping pick out the donuts! |
 |
| A sweet way to end a great trip! |
