We are on our way to the beach! After 4 long years of not getting together with MoW's family at the beach, we are on our way back. Dh and I have been going to the beach with his family since we started dating! That's about 25 years now. The annual vacations came to an end when there were too many grandchildren who were growing up and having schedules of their own during the summers.
Finally, We are off to spend the week in the Outer Banks, NC. I've never been there this time of year, but we have a fabulous house to stay in, and I'm psyched to just hang out. There are so many things to do:
- knit
- crochet
- read
- work puzzles
- play games
- watch movies
- walk on the beach
- climb lighthouses
- and, best of all, just be with the in-laws, siblings, and scads of nieces and nephews whom we see far too little of!
wwwaahhhh...so jealous, we went there when I was pregnant with number 2, which was 16 years ago...have been longing to go to the beach for the last year and am hoping to realize the dream next summer...
