So I'm rather behind on these posts, still posting about summer, as you can see! But I just love taking the time to write a little and "scrapbook" these events digitally, so it takes time.
In September we took our little family vaca with some buddies from church, the Fahy family, and we had a wonderful time! The weather was colder than we liked the first few days (that's why the children are in long sleeves on the beach!) but it warmed up nicely later that week.
Eva and I made a list of things we wanted to do at the beach, one of them was DIG A BIG HOLE! We decided an aqueduct was more fun... and it was!
The rental house we stayed in had a little red wagon, which was also a big hit. : )
Here's our place... it was one of the best houses we've ever stayed in - comfortable, not far from everything we needed, hammock swing, red wagon, and three porches!
Being at the OBX always makes me think of this place... the Junkanu in Kill Devil Hills, where we used to go when I was Eva's age.
We did end up digging that big hole, or as the kids called it, "the pool."
Eva and I had a date together one afternoon, and we went to all the places that I went with my mom when I was little... like the Christmas Mouse. : )
We also went shopping for souvenirs at, where else, but Wings, and came home with, what else, but hermit crabs! Traditions.
When the week was done, nobody wanted to go home...
But Daddy made it better by stopping at the soft pretzel shop on the way out of town.
Grateful for a beautiful week!
