Our beach trip to Oak Island is a favored vacation by us all. My boys have called that house "our beach house" because we have visited it as long as they can remember. It is cozy. It is comfortable. It really does feel like our home away from home! We are so blessed to be able to visit here (almost) every year! There is something about being at the beach, listening to the waves break, that makes you feel just a little closer to heaven.
As usual we had a wonderful time. Joss was NOT a fan of the ocean. Poppi got her a little pool so she could stay cool. She LOVED that and digging in the sand. The boys would have stayed in the ocean from sun up to sun down had we let them. And yes, this includes Daddy-O! With a little sweet talking from my Jax, I even got in the ocean a few times and so did Nana! The grands took the kids to the aquarium and Fort Fisher one day where they came back full of knowledge on all things ocean and war ;). Daddy-O and I enjoyed the relaxing day just hanging out!
And as for drama for the week (cause you know we had some since it was us and a vacation), Caden fell out of the bed one night and busted his eyebrow wide open. Blood squirting everywhere. This is my child that hates blood. Once I calmed him down a bit I preceded to wake every other adult in the house to confirm he didn't need stitches. We made a make shift steri-strip, stuck a bandaid on it and we were good.to.go. Now don't blame me if the kid has a massive scar....
Choosing pics to post after our trips are just so hard. I'm sure I'm leaving out some favorites. But ding-dong me left me camera at home so these are all iPhone pics. (hey, I'm doing good to only leave a camera when I'm packing for 6 people and a dog!)
