Trip to the Outer Banks

July 3, 2014

I am officially back from vacation(s)!  We were planning to go to the beach for the 4th, but since we’ve been gone so much lately, and Todd has a lot of travel coming up, we decided to stay home.

Last week Todd and I traveled to the Outer Banks in NC for some friends’ wedding.  Todd works with the groom, and we’ve gotten to know them both as friends.  We spent a couple extra days there because it is quite a long drive, and it was so nice to get away for a little while.  But, we definitely missed our little guy!  (He was with my parents and had a blast!)  The first morning, even though we had gotten into town around 2 am the night before, we still woke up at 6.  Then went back to sleep of course!

We spent time with friends/co-workers, went out to dinner two nights in a row, played (Todd, not me) hours of beach volleyball, went for a long bike ride, and slept in(!!!!).

We had a fun, relaxing, grown-up trip, and the wedding was gorgeous!   The ceremony was on the beach, the cocktail hour was on a lawn right off the dunes, and the reception was inside, right on the waterway with a  beautiful view to see the sunset. They did a wonderful job planning and hosting, and I’m so happy we were able to attend! Thank you for having us, Patrick and Maureen!
