Back at it today! Let December commence. We will be glad to see 2025 although I do not wish away these holidays with my kiddos. It's soooo magical for them!
We ended up staying in Charlotte for a couple extra days so we could have lunch with Kevin's dad, brother and his girlfriend on Thanksgiving. Mills hung in the car and we checked on him a few times. And took his bed so he was extra comfy! Then we hit the road to Pawleys. We missed that dinner but still got to have fun with the fam. My parents had gone to ocean isle on Tuesday so they were already there!
Grady read most of the way down there. He loves the Who Would Win books. I think the reading spark is there for him now that he can really read in his head and understand what it all means!
Pawleys. Our second favorite place after OIB.
My brother's next door neighbor has a seven week old golden named Sailor.
Marsh has grown!
We came back to Ocean Isle late Thanksgiving night. It was a long day. Poppa made Molly Anne a box that she had requested. She decided the measurements and he made it. So special!
A little Black Friday shopping at OIFC.
Then we had an afternoon cocktail hour with a bunch of friends over. I think we had 30 ish people!
Then we stopped in to Hilary's to say hey after dinner.
Saturday was the parade and Flotilla (boat parade)! Our favorite day in OIB! Well close with July 4th!
Came back to our house and decided to order pizza for dinner and hang until flotilla.
Went over to Ariel's for hot chocolate because they have the best spot to watch the boat parade right at their neighbors on the intercostal.
Bunch of crazy kids!
It was a really fun weekend. Now, we have fun times to look forward to for the Christmas season!
