OBX Part 2 - Day 1

We're so lucky to have a family beach house and the time and ability to take more than one summer vacation!  Just about 3 months after our last trip, we were headed back down to The Outer Banks.  This time, Steve was able to come with us and we were really looking forward to getting away.  Charlotte was equally excited to get to the beach and see Nana, Grandaddy and Jacki!

Charlotte enjoyed singing in the car on the way down to NC -




We decided to leave super early to avoid the traffic we'd been hearing about, so instead of stopping in Williamsburg for lunch on our way down, we stopped for breakfast at Cracker Barrel...yum!  We made it to the beach house about 12:45 and encountered an obstacle - the crib we had rented had not arrived yet, so we couldn't get Charlotte down for her usual nap.  The rental company didn't guarantee delivery until 8pm, so we decided to take our chances, skip the nap, and hit the pool!  Charlotte did remarkably well considering she had been up since 6am, and after eventually going to pick up the crib, we had her in bed right about 7.  A successful first day of vacation!
