OBX 2011

Hurricane Irene could not keep us away. Maybe delay us by a couple of days (while we were safely tucked away and enjoying Raleigh, NC), but vacation 2011 proved to be one of the best years yet! 

The build-up for this vacation was like none before. Max fully understood what it meant to go to the beach, build sandcastles, fly kites, go boogie boarding, you catch my drift. It was a loooooong summer waiting for THE beach vacation. 

And once we arrived, the beach did not disappoint. Family, fun, afternoon naps, ice cream, walks on the beach, waves, seashell hunting, games, movies, and more. It was quite the week to remember. 

Here are some of the highlights:

Max's love language: chocolate ice cream.
These waves are fierce dude! 
This face sums up Max's disposition all week: sheer joy!
The annual family photo on the beach. 
The kiddos.
Thirteen total. Ten under the age of 5!
One big happy family. 
Life at the beach. I love it!
