Rowland Vacation- Sunset Beach, NC

It was another funtastic week at Sunset Beach, NC with my dad's side of the family! In total, there ended up being 18 people and 2 babies during the week. Gradma had 7 our of her 9 Greatgrandchildren there with her! It's hard to believe that it's already over, but we are looking forward to next year.
The first day at the beach, we took the baby pool down so the little one's could play in it. We didn't know if would work or not, but it ended up being a HUGE hit! Callie and her second cousin Stevie, he's 1 month older, LOVED it. It was also great to not have a pound of sand in their dipers. We just put their little toys in there, put the umbrella right over it and they were good to go for a while.

Little Stevie, such a cuttie!

Each beach week we have a "Ghost Crab" night. We take all the kids and go looking for crabs with our flashlights. We'll this year, we happened to stumble across a tresure map that lead us to some burried "booty." Capt. Jack had burried it there before Hugo came and we just happened to disccover his chocolate gold coins that night! All the little ones had a blast, Callie and Stevie were asleep and missed the fun, but theres always next year!

Told you she was crawling! She's a scooting machine!

Unfortunately we didn't get a family shot this year, or I would have shared. We miss all the family already and looking forward to seeing everyone again in July when we get together!

I tell Aaron all the time that I want to rent a place at Sunset one summer! I had the best time ever when I got to go on the Rowland vacation! Glad y'all had fun this year too! By the way, Love Callie's white bubble! Did that come from the Remember Nyugen sale?
