Emerald Isle---The Sequel!


We were supposed to be going to the beach in Waves, NC with the Dahlquist's last week. It had been planned for months and months. Turns out, Hurricane Irene completely washed away parts of Highway 12, leaving Waves inaccessible. So, at the very last minute we booked a house on the ocean in Emerald Isle, NC. There was little hurricane damage there, and we were lucky to find a little house on the ocean just a few days before we were to check in. The weather forecast was supposed to be non-stop rain all week. Turns out, that couldn't have been more wrong! Sun every day with just a few storms one morning, giving us a chance to see the aquarium. Another beautiful week at the beach to close out the summer!

Anna and all of her little minions looking on! They all LOVE her! And who could blame them?
Ben playing in one of the tide pools that formed after high tide each day.
Wading in the surf with Daddy. Adorable!
Brian set up several little races for the kids. This is Anna and Nick at the starting line.
A fun week with great company! What a great way to end the summer!
