One of My Favorite Things

This family LOVES the beach!  This week has been beautiful so we decided to take a picnic out and play in the sand.  Charlie ran straight for the water the moment we put him down.  He stood at the edge of the water and just laughed and giggled as the water came close to his toes.  These boys rolled around in the sand, covered their dinner in sand, rushed to the edge of the water to see if it could touch their toes and had a blast!  I am looking forward to many more nights like tonight!




Charlie literally just rolled around in the sand and came out smiling every time

Making sand angels


 So excited to see the birds

First Haircut

Charlie got his first haircut today.  It's not totally long all over like Samuel's was, but it was getting pretty scraggly!  He sat with daddy and was pretty still and calm until we needed to turn him around and cut the back.  It's a little choppy because he was squirmy but it's pretty good!  Samuel also got his hair cut and wanted to make sure it was documented too!



This kid isn't a baby anymore!!!


Beautiful Weather

This week the weather has been amazing so we met some friends at Airlie Gardens today for some exploring and a picnic.  The tulips were gorgeous and the animals were basking up the sun!  We all had a great time!










Britts Donuts

Britts opened this weekend.  If you have ever come to visit us during the summer I guarantee that Ryan has found an excuse to head down to Carolina Beach for some delicious treats.  Today, with "opening season", it was no exception.  We got there and I am pretty sure there were 75ish people in line but of course we had to wait.  Ryan took the kids through the arcade and then down the boardwalk while I held our spot.  After 41 long minutes of waiting the donuts were finally ours.  It was pretty cold, so we went back to the car to enjoy our Saturday afternoon snack.



He was getting excited because we were finally close enough to SMELL the donuts





Someone wondering where his donut is!


Surprisingly daddy shared a few bites with our little munchkin.


Easter Party Preschool Style

Samuel's class has an Easter party on Friday since our spring break is this week.  We all sent in eggs and the kids all got to find 15 eggs!  Samuel was super excited.  These aren't great pictures, but this kid moves fast!  They also had a fun Easter snack back inside, but with Charlie on the run I didn't get any good pictures!  



checking out each others finds.  These two are still inseparable!

Happy Tuesday

Daddy got some fun mustaches in his Christmas stocking and Samuel found the package today.  He was excited to wear this one, until he realized it tickled.  He asked if he could wear it all day on his back!  What a funny kid!
