Trip to NC - Part 1: The Beach

Trevor and I took our big yearly trip this year for over a week and a half to North Carolina to visit my family and go to the beach. Many more pictures will come, but this post is dedicated to the fun we had at the beach. The first 2 1/2 days it was just Trevor and I with my parents and we had a lot of fun just laying out and boogie boarding in the wonderful ocean.

On Wednesday afternoon, my Aunt Kristen, Uncle Scott, and cousin Lauren joined us. That night, we all went out for dinner at Amos Mosquitos (also known as Skeeters) for dinner. We sat outside on the patio and got to enjoy the sunset and good food.

Here we are at dinner:
And our view from our table out into the sound: Thursday it was rainy, so all the girls went swimsuit shopping. Then we all hung out and played games. On Friday, it was a nice sunny day, and my mom and I got to sport our new swimsuits:

The whole gang. From L to R: Trevor, Me, Dad, Mom, cousin Lauren (11 yrs), Aunt Kristen, and Uncle Scott:
And of course, a silly picture! It would be wrong if we didn't act silly, because that's how we really are normally:

It was a wonderful beach trip. So relaxing, getting to soak up the sun, read books, and float in the ocean!

More of the NC trip to come!
