Topsail Beach

Thanks to my parents, last week we spent a wonderful five days on Topsail Island on the North Carolina coast. In addition to my parents and us, Aunt Maggie and the Anderson family were also there. We were sorry that Aunt Lee, Uncle Jim, Megan and John couldn't be there - especially because the reason was Mrs. DeRoche's passing.

But we had a good time celebrating mom's birthday and escaping from real life for awhile. We were supposed to come home Tuesday, but then stayed until Wednesday, and then decided to stay until Thursday. Miran had a lot of fun playing with the girls and they seem to really enjoy Uncle Miran.

And a couple of videos of beach fun (sorry the surf is so loud, just turn the sound down, you can't hear anyone talking on any of these).

The Andersons were looking so cute and like a perfect family during their bedtime ritual story time that I had to take a picture.
