OBX

We had a super fun beach week, minus Irene running us off on our last day. Damn Irene.  This is the second year a hurricane has cut our trip short so we've all decided next summer we are going to the beach in July. There will be no more of that!












Susan has all these Members Only jackets so we all put them on and took a family picture! Austin's fit him to a T :)









Abi said she LOVES crab legs so we took her to get some while we were at the beach.  We didn't really believe she would love and eat them like she did and she surely surprised us! She ate 2 whole claws herself! 









Bobby's brother Reagan came up from Charleston and stayed with us a few nights.  He cooked us an AMAZING dinner with hush puppies, soft shell crabs, fried flounder, fried shrimp and king mackerel. 






We went pier fishing around 11 o'clock one night.  We had a fun time but didn't catch much.  Only a few blue crabs and some small fish they threw back in.  Aus got his fishing fix :)







Can't wait to do it again next year!!!

Abi is 8!

Who can believe Abi is 8 years old? We can't! She will be starting 3rd grade next week.  We had a little luau party for her while we were at the beach since we wont' see her on her actual birthday, August 31st.  We had a great time and she got lots of great stuff!   




Our Birthday Girl! 
















Checking out all her loot! 




What flavor is it?? Vanilla? Chocolate?


She couldn't believe it! 





My mom made this rainbow cake!  So awesome!  I'll post the recipe and how to make it soon!
