Weekend #2 in OBX

We were again down in The Outer Banks again this weekend, this time camping with a bunch of other couples from our church. The weather was great and it was quite the experience. You never know what to expect when you camp. Except for the 4 extremely noisy & obnoxious peacocks that were caged on the grounds ( I wish I was kidding!) everything went smoothly and the weather was great!

Weekend #1 in OBX

Andrew's family has a house for the week on the beach in The Outer Banks, NC. We were able to go down Saturday - Tuesday morning and had a great time! There is nothing more relaxing than staying on the beach! We had perfect weather and were sad to leave it for work!
