A Little Hi From the Boys

CC and Day Day are flying in this evening. David was talking about it a lot this morning I tried to get a little video. Of course he didn't say as much when I prompted him but the boys are still cute. They are working some serious morning hair!

Camping

George and I had a "first" over Memorial Day weekend. We camped (yes, in a tent!) for three whole nights! His college crew has been camping on Ocracoke Island in the Outer Banks for 11 years. We finally joined them this year and had an absolute blast! Who knew camping could be so fun?!? I will say it takes a lot of good friends and cold beer to make it enjoyable :) Ocracoke is pretty unique; it's remote and extremely laid back with most people riding bikes or golf carts around the island. We went to the beach, rode our bikes around, checked out the cute shops and ate good food. The campsite was really fun too! It was neat to be with friends all of the time. There was always someone awake and ready to chat. I got teased because I was the first to go to bed each night. Although I was the first to bed, I can't say I got much sleep. The campground was extremely loud; people partying all hours of the night. Since we were the newbies, our tent was set up at the edge of the group spot. The campers nearby were wild. George and I were awake one night just listening to them talk. The conversations were crazy and kept me up giggling. The boys were in good hands at home with both Grandma's. We are so fortunate that CC and Me-Ma are willing to help us out so often! We thought for a couple of days that we may have to cancel our plans. Poor Drew was very, very sick the week leading up to the trip. We figured out it was pneumonia a couple of days prior and once he was given meds, he started improving right away. He wasn't 100% but CC and Me-Ma had everything under control so George and I still went on the trip. The boys were spoiled as always. Drew talked the Grandma's into a shopping trip and he also got to go see Rio in the theater.

Set up for a fun day at the beach. There aren't any houses or hotels on the beach there so folks just drive their trucks onto the sand and find a good spot.

Most of the group!

David's Curls Get a Trim

Sweet David got his first haircut! We figured it was about time since he's almost two. I love his darling curls but they must have been getting a tad long; a couple of strangers have mistaken him recently for a girl. Also, Day Day said it was time for a haircut and when a Grandparent says that, it must be pretty bad! David was sooooo funny during the cut. He just sat there and went along with it like he had been there dozens of times. He was a little under the weather which may have had something to do with his subdued behavior. I was proud of him regardless and think his new do is precious! Here's a few pictures...

He loved watching in the mirror.

Lookin' good!
