We just returned from another week at the beach house. Our neighbors, the Youngs, joined us. J.J. took 2 days off from work and really enjoyed going deep sea fishing.
It was Latte's first beach trip. She loved the water! Here are our 2 girls.
Drake runs back for another boogie board ride.
Corinna splashes around in a water hole.
Styrling and Drake have a crab in the bucket.

catches of the day....
J.J. with the dolphin, aka mahi mahi. Side note: It's now cut up and in our freezer.
The fam on the Oak Island Pier.
We returned to one of our favorite spots. However, the karoke song selection and equipment was not up to par. They must have decided to hire a few college students and buy the stuff at Walmart....last summer the Karoke guy was a professional. We had fun regardless.
Drake sings a song from HSM2.
We watched the singers after eating our ice cream. There was a BIG crowd, and most of the singers were children, hence the shoddy equipment.
Hayden with his back-up singers.
Look at the brown beach babe.

Another passenger gave Hayden a hermit crab, which was released back into the ocean when we got home.
It was hard to condense our trip into one blog entry, so more pictures may show up in future posts. We are so thankful to be able to frequent Oak Island. Here's a picture of "The Six Pack" from the beach. Lord willing, we are returning for a few days in August, right before school starts back.
