We spent last week in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. Sadly, this week it is back to school and work.
The weather was beautiful and we spent a lot of time at the beach. We also managed to climb Hatteras lighthouse, visit the aquarium, fly kites at the sand dunes, and take a sunset boat cruise. One of my favorite things we did was rent a 4WD Jeep and drive the northern beaches. The roads end and from there you can just drive right along the water on the sand. The beaches are also home to wild horses and it was fun to search for them.
We rented an oceanfront house and the sunrises took your breath away.

When you see a chair this large, you are obligated to stop for pictures.
We like to play with silly hats in gift shops. shrug.
I also attempted to take pictures of the kids on the beach...the results did not turn out as well as I had hoped, but I still got a few cute shots. Ugh, still need to get those photography classes I have been saying I need for the last 5 years. Someday!
I picked up the white dresses, for Evie and my niece, from Naartjie, love that brand! Plus, I just never get tired of taking pictures of Evie on the beach in white dresses.
Without realizing, I re-created this shot from our beach pictures two years ago. Crazy to see how much they can change in just two short years.
