"We made it!"

This is Gracyn's new favorite saying whenever we pull into our driveway :) :) We certainly did make it down and back from the Crystal Coast of North Carolina. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed warmer and cooler weather. The coldest day we went to the NC Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores, the kids really had a lot of fun and saw some really cool stuff! After driving over 2000 miles "we made it" and maybe next year we'll try it again, but my right leg needs a break from the gas and go. Here is a picture overload.


Our 1st view after 1000 miles of driving, sweet reward

Happy Boys!

The Sandman, he loves to play in the sand! My beach bum..

Gracyn's new thing is to hide when you try to take his picture, not many of his face!
