Emerald Isle Beach Trip

Emerald Isle

Well they are here, Friday night Grandma Judy, Papa Tom, and all the kids (Katie, Heather, Kyle, Emily, Allie, and Noah) arrived at our house, and we had some hang out time and stayed at our house for the night. Saturday morning we got up had breakfast and headed out to the beach at Emerald Isle, it took about 2 hours drive to arrive. We could not have asked for a nicer day, high of about 85 with low humidity and a nice breeze, sure beats the weather last week (100 + and high humidity )!
When we arrived we took all of our bags in claimed our rooms and then headed out to the beach right away. The ocean was warm the waves were not too rough and the beach was not over crowded. After a couple hours everyone headed back to the house. On Sunday everyone slept in a little and then after breakfast we tried to go to a water park, but when we arrived it started raining and before long, lightning. So the park was closed for the day and we headed back to the house. During a break in the storm we headed to the beach and had about a half hour in the waves before the storm resumed and drove us back inside. Sunday we went out to a sea food restaurant for dinner, and then later went out to the beach to play freeze tag with all the kids. Monday it was time to pack everything up and get ready to head home, but first we made another trip to the beach for about an hour and then want back to the water park that we were rained out of the day before. We made it home at about 6:30 Monday night, its good to be home. Check out the slide show of all the photos.
