Outer Banks

Last week we took a wonderful family vacation to the Outer Banks in North Carolina.

We had so much fun going from the beach, to the hotel pool, to the ocean, to the beach, to the pool again.  

We also had some adventures on our vacation checking out a lighthouse, and Ocracoke Island.

We found TONS of sea shells

At ate Duck Donuts a lot!

Here are some pictures from our trip.

 Pearl's favorite hiding spot.

 Grace had a way of holding her donut to make her as messy as possible.

 Sam liked her style

So did Lilly. 

I am surrounded my mess makers!

 We had fun flying kites on the beach.

 this is a sting wray egg sack.  cool and gross at the same time.

 Pearl was scared of the ocean.

 One day we came out to the beach and there were these clear jelly fish all over the sand.

We had such a great time relaxing and playing as a family.  We can't wait to go back again!
