I recently got back from a family vacation at Ocean Isle Beach in North Carolina. When I say “family vacation” I mean there were about 20+ folks coming and going from the beach house. This has been an ongoing tradition well before I was born. It’s an opportunity for cousins, aunts, uncles, brothers, sisters, sons, daughters and so on to spend a week together under the same roof to really bond + catch up. When you think about it, It’s priceless. Here’s a recap of my vacation at Ocean Isle!
The views from the beach house.
This was the best $9.99 I spent on a cheesy shirt from Waves to give to my cousinI kept it classy on the first day with a Diet Coke in my House of Swank koozie.
Wine, saltwater and sand is all I need. This is what heaven looks likeThe beach hat I bought was cutting it, so I bought this amazing mustache hat to keep me cool and looking hip
My cousin Blake found this starfish on the beach. Poor l’il guy lost a limb later that day.
This is what happens when a pack of cute kids asks you to buy one of their bracelets they made. I couldn’t say no!
Every evening led to an exciting game of beach volleyball
I adore Ocean Isle for their calm beachesAnother gorgeous view of Ocean IsleThe family flag that was on display everyday!
These 2 goobers kept me laughing all week long and I got to feel young again hanging out with them
That pretty much sums up the week I spent at Ocean Isle… drinking wine/ Diet Coke, hanging out with my cousins, being goofy and LOVING the beach.
