OBX fun

We have been on Vacation to the Outer Banks in North Carolina. We haven't ever done something like this before, but we rented a beach house with a couple of other friends and stayed for a week. It was so fun and relaxing. I definitely recommend it. Of course, the other day, I was recommending it to one of Emma's friend's Mom and she started telling me how they had a time share in Cancun that they had used for years and so this year they were going to try out St. Maarten's. Ok, I guess I will just shut my mouth about beach vacations!

But truely, if you go, I read so much stuff on the internet about Duck being the best place to be at, but after seeing it first hand, the place we got in Corolla was so, so much better! I definitely recommend Corolla.

We mostly hung out at the beach and built sand castles and buried each other and played in the waves.

At night we played lots of games and even had a crown for the present winner. I got to wear it once!We also did fireworks- shh don't tell anyone- one night and went crabbing. The beach is filled with tons of little "ghost crabs" as they are called. See him?Even Max caught one all on his own. We also had to catch a few jelly fish one day, but that is in retaliation for them stinging us a couple of times. They came in on the warm tide. It was fun to play in, until you got stung a couple of times.

We went jogging on the beach and saw the wild horses and played tennis and biked and even took a trip to see Kitty Hawk.

It was indeed an amazing vacation!
