The BIG post

We went to the beach this week! Grandma Q told us to pack our bags and head to Atlantic Beach!
Also, Mom got a new iPhone for her birthday, which lets her have fun with pictures, so you might think I'm getting artsy, but really, it is my Mom and her free apps.



The end of the week brought the end of the sunshine, which is ok with Mom, on account of the pretty pictures.

Since the rainy weather didn't roll in until the end of our trip-- we had lots of until time to enjoy sunshiny fun.
We got to the beach in time for the 4th of July fireworks. Our Raleigh neighbor Ms. Em has a house and lots of family and had a BIG July 4th party down the road from us at the beach, so we went over there for some fun!


Fireworks!

We also went to the NC Auarium for Shark day (Tuesday) and Pirate Night (Thursday).
Here some Shark Day pictures!





And here's some from Pirate Night.

Jessa touched a snake!

We also played lots around Peppertree. See saw!






And we took a ferry ride over to a Barrier Island. This year we did not see horses or sand dollars. We did see lots and lots of fish and other sorts of shells, though. And Dad spotted dolphins!






We looked for shells on Atlantic Beach, too.



And when we'd had enough sun and fun, we spent time together, mostly getting crafty, compliments of Aunt Ann, who gave us all sorts of AWESOME crafts right before the trip! Thanks Aunt Ann!
