Ahhh...the beach!!

Can't you just hear the surf, feel the sun on your face and the sand between your toes...

We had such a great time at the Outer Banks, NC in July. We had a big family vacation on the beach and also celebrated with my niece Jessica as she and Doug became husband and wife. (More on the wedding later). We met on the beach about 10:00 every morning and stayed until 4 or 5 each afternoon. It was beautiful; sometimes overcast, sometimes bright sun, always with the ocean spray, sounds of children playing and adults laughing...and of course, the seagulls!

Scott (nephew) is laying in the sand, Me, Betty(sis-in-law), Beverly(sis-in-law) and Debra (sis)
Beverly, Randy (brother), Debra
My niece Hannah - yeah, she didn't turn many heads!
Bill, Rick (brother) and Terry (brother) taking a swim.



















We had such a great, relaxing time! The best

part was visiting with family we haven't seen in a long time and really getting to catch up. I really hope we are able to do it again soon.


We shouldn't put off spending time with those you love! I don't want to take it for granted that they will always be here, and that we'll always have time later. So go now!!! Plan a getaway for you and those you love!!
