OBX

Here's the family pic. Pretty good looking group if I do say so myself. The week went by way too fast. Here are some memories from the week:

1.) Daddy and I getting stomped at 80's Trivia Pursuit by Bennett. He is like Rainman with all the facts he knows (things that I'm not sure people should know). Now I understand why he never had to bring books home from school to study. We'll never forget what body part Nicholas Cage's character was missing in "Moonstruck" (will we guys?)
2.) Smelling breakfast cooking each morning. Thank you, Mimi. Our idea of vacation is NOT cooking; her idea of vacation is having the opportunity to cook.
3.)Wooten's answer to the "Battle of the Sexes" question: How do you stop the run in pantyhose? WOOTEN: ducktape.
4.) Sydney's Free Willy float and the way she (in her Johnston County accent) said, "Willy".
5.) Carson's eyes when he saw Kay with a bag of chips.
6.) Carson going to the beach for the first time and eating sand!
7.) Sydney's 4th birthday party - going on an adventure with Dora the Explorer. Her reaction to the party and dancing to the "We did it" song.
8.) Anna Gracen helping me set up the Dora adventure. We had fun setting up.
9.) Bennett's reaction to the price of the Dora cake.
10.) Dinner at Darrell's Restaurant in Maneto - Wooten's first taste of soft shell crab.
11.) Currituck lighthouse, Buxton lighthouse and Cape Hatteras lighthouse (Wooten & Tom went up the Hatteras lighthouse)
12.) Watching the movie "The Holiday" with Tom and Jennifer.
13.) Watching "National Treasurer" with "T", Wooten & Tom.
14.) Shopping with the girls at the outlet mall - passing on the Coach purses and getting great deals on the Bass purses.
15.) Anna Gracen having a fit to go to Dairy Queen.
16.) Wooten, Christian and Tom going to Red's Army and Navy Surplus almost every day - great dog tags.
17.) Daddy ("T") cooking fish Friday night - too good!! Tasting rare tuna for the first time - quite tasty!
18.) Playing Guitar Heroes on the big screen in the theater room. Bennett & Wooten really ROCK!
19.) Finally finishing a song on Guitar Heroes - getting booed off the stage isn't fun.
20.) Watching Wooten calmly complete song after song like a pro.
21.) The kids playing in the pool with the water guns with "T" and Uncle Bennett.
22.) Mimi and Anna Gracen baking cookies.
23.) Having Sydney crawl up in my lap. "Playing" the guitar with Sydney.
24.) Seeing the smile on Carson's face each morning when I said, "Hey, Carson."
25.) Carson blowing kisses and giving high fives.
26.) Watching Wooten play with Sydney - he was so patient and kind with her.
27.) Watching Anna Gracen taking care of Sydney and Carson. Loved it when she made Sydney some chocolate milk.
28.) Christian changing clothes several times a day - going from surfer dude to Army guy.
29.) Climbing the dunes at Jockey's Ridge and then running down them. Love the "Dune Hugger" t-shirts Anna Gracen & I bought.
30.) Eating breakfast at The Dunes - great buffet!!
