Last week we went on our annual vacation with Taylor's side of the family to Carolina Beach. I think this was our fourth year there and as always it was so nice! Taylor's parents (Mimi & Grandad) rented an awesome house on the sound which was complete with fenced in yard for the kids and dogs, boathouse with dock, screened in porch, and awesome views!
The first part of the week was a little rainy but that was ok because the majority we had beautiful weather and lots of sunshine. Patti and I did our spa day complete with facials, manicures and pedicures. Then we went out to eat sushi and went shopping. We had a blast and it was so great to have some time to ourselves without the kids. Taylor and Norman kept both kids and things for them went well. It is great for me to have some "me time" to relax and I think it helps me to be a better mom. We also took the kids to a great park in Wilmington, Hugh McRae Park. If you are ever in the area you should check it out.
We celebrated Norman's birthday with having a great dinner at home, cake and playing poker. Terry thoroughly enjoyed putting the candles on and then even more taking them off and licking them clean.
The boys spent their time fishing and hanging out. They went out on Grandad's boat, surf fished on the beach and got to go deep sea fishing with their Uncle and cousins. They had a great time being together and enjoyed catching our dinner!
We all went out on the beach at the end of the week together and Terry got to play in the sand while we watched the guys fish. It was a lot of fun and a great way to spend time together.
We had such a great week and Terry loved spending time with his grandparents and Uncle Vick. Thank you Grandad and Mimi for such a nice week at the beach and we can't wait until next year!
