Blessed with a Vacation to The Outer Banks North Carolina

I am so blessed. It seems like every year some how we as a family get to have a beach vacation. I love doing this with my family as I grew up going to the beach and they are some of my favorite childhood memories. This year my dad and his wonderful wife Michele got a beach house for the family. For the first time ever we had a vacation with my two sisters and their families all in the same house. It was wonderful. Each night a different family would take care of the meal that night and the weather was beautiful. I can't thank Dad and Michele enough for making this wonderful week happen. I and my family will never forget it. Here are some pictures:


Connor loves the ocean



It just wouldn't be complete without Corban digging his HUGE hole



Every photo and pic we have of Juan is of him sitting and reading,
 that is the way he rolls on vacation




I was SOOOOO relaxed mmmmmmm nice.



River LOVES her cusin Tiffany, they had lots of bonding time
 before Tiff goes to college at UT



Connor and Corban got to have a wild horse beach dune tour in a Hummer - spoiled!



After sitting in the drivers seat Connor and Corban said
they wouldn't mind having a hummer one day, wouldn't we all!




Here are my LOVELY sisters Lisa and Pam - I love them SO much.
 They are both amazing wives, mothers and women of God. Great role models for me.



Gumba was full of great stories and fun games
 except for the Dip Bong game taught by the wonderfully creative and fun Cecily (my niece).



Here is Cecily with her TEXAS pride UT shirt on - have to represent!



Here is Gumba with his Phillies hat on representing his favorite team



I love my dad SOOOOOOOOO much!



Here are my nieces Lauren and Morgan with my sister Lisa



Instead of Connor calling Dave my brother-in-law Uncle Dave he calls him SUPER DAVE!
This is Connor borrowing his shades and loving it.



Here is River jumping onto a Skim Board, lots and lots of practice



A tradition is to take a picture with our name or year in the sand.
 Here are all the cousins except for Hailey who we all missed very much.
They are putting sand on Connor's head and making him suffer - ha ha ha



Corban is a master bogie boarder





Many thanks to Dad and Michele (Gumba and Oma) for a wonderful time at the beach!





Can't wait till next time!
