Kites & Horses

More fun at the beach included flying kites, lots of pool time, and visiting the wild horses of Corolla...
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Memorial Day Lighthouse Adventure

Happy Memorial Day!! (Can you see the flag?!  I woke up early and got crafty with our gluten free breakfast)

Lunch by the pool:

We went on a family adventure for the afternoon:
 

See that lighthouse (or "sunhouse" if you ask Grant)?
 

Now you see it:
 

Yes, that one, it's Currituck Beach Lighthouse:
 

It looks like this from the inside:
 

Well, we climbed it.  Even little Hayes, all on his own, all 214 steps.
 

The beautiful view of the sound (or "noise" as Grant called it) from the top:
 

Proof that we're all there and trying not to blow away:
 

 

Beached!

We kicked off our beach trip with two of the boys' top items on our summer bucket list: mini golf & seeing Ceci & BobBob!  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After golf, we got settled in at our house and headed down to the beach to check out the water before bedtime:
 

Think these guys were excited to hit the sand?
 

 

Seriously, I tried to narrow these down, but I love all of these pictures!
 

 

 

 

Road Trip

After graduation, we were beach bound!  We had car entertainment:
 

 

And the boys gave Daddy "beach tickets" every 30 miles to help with the countdown:
 

 

 

Our little graduate

Grant "graduated" from his preschool in a cute little ceremony.  He's switching to a new school next year, so this was his last day there.
