Another Day in Paradise

Aaaaahhhhhh! There is nothing better than vacation! We are having such a great time. Relaxation, no schedule, nothing to do except walk, read, eat, and play with the kids. Nice! We ended up having sunshine yesterday after all. I napped from about 10:30 to 1:00 then got up and played outside the rest of the day. The kids actually got in the water even though the water is cold. My dad grilled burgers and hot dogs for dinner last night and then the guys all watched the Carolina Hurricanes hockey game.

It was supposed to rain all day today, but it hasn't. It rained during the night, but then has been overcast today, but not rainy. We went to Roanoke Rapids and shopped this morning. Ryan and Brooks both got new Nike running shoes at a sporting goods store and I got some work-out/walking tops, a tank top and some boardshorts for over my bathing suit. Ryan also got 2 new movies (shock!), and we got the kids some cheap dollar store toys. Then we went to Chic-Fil-A for lunch- YUM! We always have to go there while in NC. It is our favorite restaurant. Michigan is losing out without Chic-Fil-A's! When we got home, Ryan and I went for a jog and Cobe went up to the marina with Billy and Suzanne. Now Cobe is begging to use the computer so I'll post more later!

Glad you guys are having good weather. The lake with rain is a bummer, unless you have a good book and peace & quiet.
Holly says the kids got in camp again for the summer.
