Vacation station.


We did it! Our first family vacation.

We, and our friends Janet, Andy, Andy J and Connor, drove to the Outer Banks in North Carolina where we rented a house and r-e-l-a-x-e-d. With a hot tub and a pool right on the property, it took us a couple of days to make it across the street to the ocean. We indulged in sea food, we took in the sun, we had time to sleep and to breath.

There are a few highlights of the trip and one was the night Dave and I went out. Alone. Buh-bye kiddies. We hopped a ferry to a Ocracoke Island (population 800) and ate sea food at a restaurant called the Back Porch. The breeze and bikes reminded me of the Bahamas.

There is a bunch more to say, but Not-So-Little Lungs is calling. There are pictures on our family website.

Hooray for you guys. That is wonderful. I can't wait to see the pics.

We'll be heading out on a family vacation in few weeks as well. I'm not sure what it's going to be like at this stage of the game... 3 teens and 3 preteens (Yes, I include Caleigh who is 6 in that preteen category--haha).
