July: OBX, Part One

We stayed at a beach house with all the Jacks in the Outer Banks of NC, July 11-18. It was beautiful & fun! The only "downer" was that Hunter was pretty sick with a cold. So, Hunter may not seem as smiley as he was in last yr's Myrtle Beach pix -- but he enjoyed the sand and ocean nonetheless!

Charlie's favorite activity, besides drinking cold beers while lounging in the sand, was boogie boarding. Krista's favorite activity, besides drinking Mike's Hard Lemonaide while lounging in in a beach chair along the shore line, was collecting shells with Hunter. Charlie also enjoyed building a sand castle with Hunter, which Hunter promptly knocked down.

Enjoy the pics -- which will be posted in 3 parts -- & I hope all is well with you and yours!

Love, Krista

p.s.

We adults especially enjoyed playing UNO over some cocktails once the kiddos were in bed! Thank you, Mimi, for sharing your love of the game with the Jacks last yr @ Capon Springs!
