Harrison Family Vacation

Okay so we booked a last minute get away to the Outer Banks. Avon....Nice, quiet, relaxing....ahhh. We left Sunday afternoon for the 5 hour ride and the babies did great the first 3 hours. They started getting grumpy after that and made the rest of the ride a complete hell. But upon arrival and set up of the pack and plays they went right to bed.

We started Day one at the beach. They both seemed to enjoy it for about 30 minutes or so. Jesse was fishing during this time (well attempting to fish). They do not like the water. Danner wasn't too fond of the sand either. So she basically just sat on the beach chair and soaked in the rays. After about a half hour we hiked back to the house and played in the pool. And boy do they love the pool. They had so much fun playing in the water. We enjoyed a nice dinner at home and went to Dairy Queen for some ice cream. What a perfect day!!

Day two was pretty much the same as Day one. Beach, pool, naps, out for dinner for some seafood. Danner however decided she does not like the beach anymore. No sand on her feet!! So once again we spent the majority of the time at the pool. And they love playing in the house. We didn't bring many toys which seems to be okay for the moment because they really enjoy just exploring the large house. It is quite baby proof-thank goodness.

Jesse has been fishing during naps and has yet to catch something. He really isn't a very good fisherman. I even had to show him how to work the weights. And did I mention the haul to the beach is awful. It is right across from the house, but there is a mountain of a sand dune that is totally awful to climb up carrying a baby and stuff.

We have some friends coming towards the end of the week which will be fun. For now we are enjoying the peace and quiet and views. I am hoping to make this an annual thing. I didn't bring the plug for the camera so I will post pics when I get home.
