Oak Island 2011

Finally getting around to our beach trip....(picture overload!)

Saturday Aug. 20:

        Saturday we got up, got ready and waited on my mom, dad, and brother to get to our house.  They were a little late so we took a few pics outside while we waited:

After they got there, we followed them to eat breakfast and then we were on our way.  Macy did pretty good and took several naps.

We stopped at the farmers market to use the restrooms and look around.

Finally we arrived.  We unpacked and then got ready to go eat. 

Then we headed to get groceries. I put Macy in her sling and wore her around the store. She was so relaxed she was about to fall asleep .  When we got back to the truck she fell asleep instantly once she was in her carseat.

Sunday Aug 21.

        We stayed at the house and played on the beach all day. 

Macy loved the water!

"Please...no pictures!"

 We had pork roast for dinner and I made a cake that looked like a donut..mm

Then we walked on the beach

Monday August 22:

        We got ready and drove to Myrtle Beach.

 First we went to the Tanger Outlets, but didn't find anything.  Then we went to eat at Bennetts for all you can eat crab legs...yum!

Tuesday August 23:

      Hurricane Irene seemed to be heading our way so we knew we better enjoy the beach while it was still nice out. 

 We ordered take out from the BBQ House for dinner and then walked on the beach and took pics of course.

Wednesday August 24:

       Played on the beach for a while

Then got ready to go to Southport. 

First we went to our favorite little store to get some candy.  Then we took some pictures by the water. We had to wake Macy up so she was a little out of it for the pictures.

 After that we went to eat at Lucky Fisherman.  It wasn't really good for what we paid...   

Macy really wanted this cookie...

Then we drove out to Boiling Springs Lakes to see what it looked like.   

After we got back, we had a photo shoot with Macy.

Thursday August 25:

       

I made monkey bread for breakfast. 

 Then we stayed on the beach most of the day. 

The tide started coming waaay in all the way to our cabana and then to the beach access.  

Brought to you by Hurricane Irene:  

Then the tide went back out and there was an awesome sunset

 That evening the realty place left a message saying that we had to evacuate by 10 a.m. the next morning  boooo!   So this was our last day ..sad

Friday August 26th:

     Packed up and left....had breakfast at Hardees (along with the rest of the island) and were on our way.
