NC Vacation: Friday

Thursday night Alan, Michelle, Julianna and Lily joined us at the hotel. We shared an awesome suite right on the beach. Friday we headed back down to the ocean. Joseph still liked the sand better than the waves, but he at least did better Friday. And once again......the top of Julianna's head :P

Those two were quite funny together. They loved each other, but then they loved to aggravate each other. The would steal each others toys just to get a rise out of the other. Then we would turn around and see them hugging. Very cute!

Uncle Alan and Julianna in the surf. She actually was braver with the waves than Emily and Joseph. She would just laugh and laugh!




Allen taking the girls into the waves. He is such a good daddy!

There weren't very many seashells at all. I was really surprised. Hannah was able to find two though. I was supposed to save them.....I think they may have been returned to the waves
Our whole group in the waves, well except me...someone had to take the pic :)

I was taking pics of my kids and a big wave came up and surprised us

Allen played so hard with the kids on Friday. I was so impressed with him. Man was he beat red!!! Hannah loved the pool. She was in there forever....and then didn't want to get out when it was about the rain. Allen even let her swim without her preserver for a little while because she was doing so well. Emily and Joseph got much braver too. In fact, Emily, Joseph and Julianna were all jumping into our arms before we left!

Saturday morning we left for home. We made it to Louisville, KY. Allen was getting tired and it was going to storm, so we decided to spend the night. It was a super room and it had a pool. So, before my eyes were even completely open Hannah had her swimsuit on and was ready to go! We grabbed a little continental breakfast and headed for the pool.

We finally made it home by about 4:30 Sunday evening. It was super to get home that early. We were able to unpack the car....ugh, more like open the door and let everything spill out! We were so cramped in there and had gathered so many things as I bought the kids prizes for along the road for good behavior and such. But we were able to detail Allen's car and even unpack everything inside! I was so grateful for all the help and all the work done. I was even able to get all the laundry washed and dryed. Now, just finding time to fold it and put it away :)

Super vacation!
