This is our year to vacation with the Sink clan. Georgia decided she may want to save for Disney in a few years, so in lieu of a big beach vacation, we laid low at the Bay. We had a GREAT time! Daniel and I took off an extra day at work, and we scooted down a little early to get in some extra sun and water.

we made it! |

such a cool shot... watching Daddy flip off the dock |
We came inside to unpack and clean up... and afterwards, had to come out to fish a little bit.

|
there's my whole wide world, and one of my most favorite views, looking across Bulls Bay |
|
I snuck out after dinner to watch the sun set... perfection. |
We had off and on rain most of the trip. We would run out during a break in the clouds and swim until we saw the rain coming towards us over the Bay. Though the weather wasn't perfect, we all had fun!

floating... on the porch... with Ashley during naptime. |

life is good - a giant swan and two little girls |

Don't you just want to pinch these two sweet cheeks???! |
|
had to include a throwback picture of the same top (Syd) two years prior |
|
the Miles from PA were spending the week in Nags Head, so we spent the day with them at the beach! Ella and Sydney had so much fun with cousin Kinsey |
We came home from the beach and everyone crabbed. Daniel would rip off their pinchers for the little ones to hold. Ashley caught a small one, and didn't think it would pinch, so she handed it to Ella. Well... turns out, it does pinch, and it grabbed ahold of her finger real good. She screamed and still has PTSD, but she lived to tell the tale. Catching crabs was one of Daniel's favorite memories - we caught a ton with nets and chicken legs, and we all laughed a lot.
We took some "Down by the Bay, where the watermelons grow" cousin pictures. How sweet are these Sink cousins??
As a side note, getting a decent picture was most definitely impossible.
