We've been inspired !
After enjoying looking at Tina's sister's blog, we decided to take the plunge and build one of our own. Hopefully we can communicate what's been happening in our life to interested people quickly... and with pictures !
We just returned from our 2nd vacation to the Outer Banks this weekend. The first time was the 4th of July week with just the 4 of us. This time we went with Tina's sister and brother-in-law, Audrey and Chip, as well as Tina's mom. It was a great time. The weather was perfect and we were at the beach practically every day. Chip and Audrey rented a surf board for the week and the kids got to try it. Evan actually did pretty well on it. Tropical Storm Fay didn't make it up the coast as promised, but we got to enjoy some incredibly high waves as a result.
We stayed at a resort which was 1 mile inland. This was different from all the other times we have gone, but it was a good experience. One morning we got together and played some tennis. We discovered that Gigi's short game is nothing to scoff at. The kids did real well also.
It was great to spend 1 last week together before school starts. The kids are in football and cheerleading this fall. Evan is also participating in a fall baseball program. It should be a fun filled autumn.
Take a look at the video below. Audrey made it with pictures taken from the vacation.
