Vacation - Tuesday and Wednesday

Yesterday and today were beach days. It is so fun to watch the girls play in the sand, and gather shells. Hailey likes to play and run from the waves. Until today Kaelin could have cared less about the water, she was interested only in the giant sand box :). However, this morning she too was having fun running from waves and splashing.

Yesterday morning we took a walk down past the fishing pier. It is fun to watch the little sandpiper run from the waves. We came upon a porpoise that had washed up the night before. Kaelin was intrigued, but didn't really seem bothered by it.

This morning we woke up to a thunderstorm, so the girls spent the morning playing with playdough, but the sun came out again - so out we went! Justin and I got to go out to lunch while the girls napped and enjoy some time together. Then this evening Kaelin got her hair cut (like Abby's, she says). She was tired of it being in her face (and so was I)!

The weather is supposed to be 82 and sunny for the remainder of our stay! We are hoping to spend more time on the beach, possibly take another trip into Wilmington for a Brew Threw trip (T-shirts), and go out to dinner tomorrow. We have to be out of our house at 10am Saturday and we are still unsure when we will be home. We are trying to decide if we should take a scenic route down to OBX for a day, or go to Luray Caverns in VA, or just drive halfway and stay the night. Either way we should arrive home sometime Sunday afternoon (mine and Jecca's birthday for those of you that need a reminder :) ) We are having a blast and I am so glad we took this vacation as a family!
