The boys and I headed to Emerald Isle to spend 4 days with Brenda and Cheryl on the beach (poor David had to work!). It was so much fun, and as always we miss the ocean already. We kept the boys quite busy traveling to the North Carolina Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores, Fort Macon, and the Maritime Museum in Beaufort, to see the Blackbeard display. When we weren't taking day trips, we hunted for shells on the beach, did lots and lots of art (including shrinky-dink ornaments for our inky-dinky beach house tree!), and watched Christmas movies. I had a hard time narrowing down the pictures for this post!

hopefully not a foreshadow of things to come
the very reason I refuse to have video games, an ipad or an iphone in my house
