Photos From Emerald Isle 2009

Last week, we traveled to North Carolina for a family vacation. We were really lucky with the weather and had an amazing time. Here are some photos.


Since he was a baby, Johnny has never wanted to get in the ocean. This time, he nervously followed his father (the dark dot in the water) down to the water to watch him swim.

On the beach, we were entertained by this little fellow, who came out of his hole and stared at us.

I know I'm biased because she's mine, but I think she looks so beautiful here.

Johnny finally overcame his fear of the water and got in.

And then he didn't want to come out.

Maureen was content to sit on the beach and cover every inch of her body with sand.

Some nights, we went back at sunset to walk around.

Both kids got a kick out of these sand crabs. Not only were they easy to catch and plentiful, but they have no pinchers too.


On Thursday, we traveled to nearby Beaufort, NC, to visit the historic part of town and have dinner.

We were also able to get a family picture in which no one is crying!

Silly girl!
