No-Car aka North Carolina

I don't really feel like writing everything out from our trip. Seems like a big task that I'm not willing to take right now. However, I have posted some pictures for your enjoyment. There are, of course, more pictures but my computer is running extremely slow tonight and I don't have the patience. "Hello...my name is apathetic" tonight. 

Pre-Trip EXCITEMENT! Emilia can hardly handle it all.

 Stephanie took us to the cutest park. It was pretty much a castle and those boys had so much fun.
Of course we had to have yummy snacks pretty much all the time while we were there :)

 I love these boys so much. Picture above is from our hotel suite. I looked into the room and found all of the boys lovin' on Mia. Picture below is of all the sweet cousins. We had the BEST time with all of them. Charles didn't want to leave and constantly talks about Zach, James and Connor. 

 Family pic on the beach. Such a pretty sunset.

 Daniel, Steph, Zachary and James.

Below, Charles is enjoying his Creators Creation.

 I love Tatum! This girl holds a very special place in my heart. We spent a few days in Wilmington on Carolina Beach and Tatum just happens to live there AND work at the worlds best dougnut shop. I love how God cares about the small things in life.

 Returning from the beach we had Jon, Mallory and Connor meet us at D&S's house for dinner :) it was a special time of hanging out and just being with each other. Steph was taking the picture. I love this.

 Charles and Daddy on the Battleship :) This was rather exciting for Charles but it was also nap time aka melt-down time. In the pictures below you can see that fruit snacks, once again, save the day.

The one and only time this boy slept in the plane was on the very last flight back. He didn't nap for very long and then woke up stiff, sore and confused. It was a pretty rough flight but all in all the kids did WONDERFUL on the airplanes.

We had the best time visiting family in North Carolina. Made memories that will last the rest of our lives. Friendships were deepend greatly.
