We gathered with friends and family in Outer Banks the first week in September. Included were the Shawn Hunt family, the Lee family, the Smith family, the
Huster family and the Jack Hunt family. We rented a 7 bedroom, 5 1/2 bath ocean front home in Corolla, and we all had a BLAST!
Our beautiful home, with sunrises each morning worth waking up to!
Shawn's parents caught enjoying the morning sunrise.
"The Heavens declare the glory of God...
...and the
firmament shows his handiwork." (Psalm 19:1)
We all enjoyed our time playing games like
Guesstures, Mexican Train, and Rook.
One morning we went up to
Carova, to the off road section of the
OBX. We went 4 wheeling along the ocean's edge for miles, then took a trip into the sand dunes.
Within the dunes, lived hundreds of wild horses. We
rode along several paths and paused to watch many horses.
Definitely on of our favorite memories!
The Corolla Light house.
The entire gang taking their "Hogs" out for a cruise!
We visited the Wright's museum, "First in Flight!"
It was off the dunes of
OBX that man flew the first airplane.
We collected sand crabs one night, and poured the liquid from glow sticks on them, before releasing them back on the beach.
Shawn putting another kite together.
Boogie Boarding or Surfing??? Leave it to Dylan to mix them both!
Kim's Mom and Dad enjoying the beach.
Shawn's Mom, out of her element, but still enjoying the beach.
Shawn building one of 4 sand castles. This one was engraved in honor of our families. However, "someone," (maybe a bit jealous, of such artwork) decided to BLOW UP this castle....
...with their SAND CANNON pointed right at it, complete with CANNON BALLS!
We spent one night presenting our "Charlie Brown" Talent/Variety Show! It included great performances, such as "Beauty Shop Makeover" skit by Noelle and Ashley...
"Man of Constant Sorrows," song performed by Jeremy, Everette & Jared;
"7 Days of Vacation," song by the Smith Family;
"Gone with the Wind"
soliloquy by Melanie Lee;
and "
Girly Sue's Mini Skit," by Ashley and Shawn....
...who won 1st place - $50!
Our last night was spent walking the sand dunes at the park.
The sand just goes on, and on, and on...
We enjoyed great view of the ocean and sound sides.
A little
fool'n around with beach photography.
Such HAMS!
I'm thinking "beauties and the beast"!
