Well as you can see we took a family vacation to the outer banks. We had a wonderful time, it was a much needed vacation. Mimi was able to come along with us which was a huge help! We missed pappy but he was getting some much needed work done on their house. The boys were amazingly well behaved the whole way down! We did leave at 3:30am though, it kinda backfired on us they stayed awake for a couple hours which I was hoping they would sleep. We rented a beach house in avon that was only a block away from the beach. It was nice not needing to load up the van to get to the beach. The energizer loved the ocean, the tank loved the sand and little dude loved chasing the seagulls :) We took a trip up to the kitty hawk area the one day it was about an hr drive where we went to the wright brothers stuff and went mini golfing. That evening right after dinner we were about to head back down to our beach house and the tank started screaming and crying. We thought for sure he just jammed the straw up his nose then I realized there was a stone wedged up in his nostril. So we zipped of to the ER to rescue that pebble! Of course we had to end the evening with some ice cream celebration of the rescued pebble and very well behaved kids in the ER. (one of the moments I was thankful mimi was along with us) I'd have to say I enjoyed driving fast to the ER maybe I should become an ambulance driver, haha. Anyway we spent pretty much all of our time at either the beach or the pool. We will definitely be taking more vacations down there.
