DUCK VACATION! QUACK!

We had a wonderful vacation in Duck, N.C. this September. We were a little nervous about it being hurricane season, but we lucked out and had beautiful weather.

There are really cool sand dunes in the outer banks. Actually, these are the sand dunes that the Wright Brothers flew their very first motorized aircraft.
Somehow, in the vast amount of sand, Kaleb managed to step in the only pile of dog doo and of course we did not have anything to clean his foot w/ until we got back to the car! YUCK!
Kaleb and Baylor making sand angels...
Mom AKA GiGi surprised us with a Christmas in September!
Kaleb and Baylor became pretty good friends on this trip. They had a lot of fun playing together.
The waves were really rough b/c there was a hurricane there the week before we came, so kaleb got to do a little sand boogie boarding.
Chilaxing...
Chase got to do some sand surfing too!
The kids entertained themselves pretty well inside the house...it's funny how they all stuck together most of the time.
Kaleb LOVED to be buried in the sand...and it only cost us $120...we made a trip to the doctor when we got back b/c the mysterious bumps w/ rings appeared all over his body shortly after we got back home...we thought it could be ring worm or possibly bed bugs from a hotel...but it ended up being a reaction from sand flea bites...ughh!
Baylor the mermaid...
Kaleb (and I) devoured a m&m covered marshmellow on a stick...i think he's still smelling the delight in the picture.
Baylor sporting one of her stocking stuffers...her lady bug girl bathing suit
The family pic...it was great to relax at my favorite place (the beach) with my favorite people!
