Finally at the Beach!

Every year my family and I head to Cape Hatteras for our summer vacation. We always have such a blast and stay at a beach house almost directly beside Cape Hatteras Lighthouse which is so cool because I can just spend hours out on the porch looking at the ocean and the lighthouse, two of my favorite things. I use to live at the Outer Banks when I was a kid. My dad has lived there most of my life and I went to high school there which was pretty enjoyable. I decided to move back to my hometown after I graduated because it was just to costly to live up there (Outer Banks). I truly do miss alot of things about it. Anyway....back to our vacation. Rick, Gracie, and I always vacation up there in July with my Mom, Stepdad, and Sister and we all stay at the beach house. I SO love it. We go to the beach, the pool, and one day me, rick, and gracie went to the ferry docks right at Ocracoke and shopped around up there. It was amazing to see how far the locals have come since the hurricane last year made such a terrible impact on that part of the isalnd, you can still see damage all around, they even had to build a new bridge connecting to hatteras island because a whole new inlet was made. We had a great few days at the house and just enjoyed each others company. On the way out we stopped and visited my dad, stepmom, brother, and sister and chilled with them for a while. I had a great vacation and I am so blessed for all of my family.

Here are a few pictures that I took with my phone
