Outer Banks 2011

Last week we headed down to the Outer Banks for a week with the Hudson and Watkins families!  It was so nice to get away and spend time with family.  We had so many good times (and a few bad...like the fact that the girls were obsessed with Demi and wouldn't leave her alone, the fact that they learned to whine incessantly and still are working on not doing that, and the fact that I got a sinus infection our last couple days there).  Otherwise...we had a great time and created some awesome memories! As usual, we went a little overboard with the pictures and this isn't even all of them :)

One of the few times the girls weren't pawing at Demi when she was around

I think Kai must have had a poopy diaper :)

Buddies!

Story time with the big girls

Breakfast on Day 1

Leah LOVED the pool and spending time with Daddy!

Isabella liked it sometimes...but preferred to stay on the deck and play

Daddy is SO much fun!
