First beach trip

Todd's cousins own a house in Cape Carteret, NC, which is on the Intracoastal Waterway and they were nice enough to let us use it for the week. So, we loaded up both vehicles, Aubrey, and both dogs and took off for the week. Aubrey seemed to love being at the beach. She got to hang out at her Aunt Traci's bachelorette party for a bit the first weekend and got her first visit to the ocean. The water was a bit cool for her to sit in long, but she loved to kick her legs in the water.



We also took her to her first aquarium in Pine Knoll Shore and it was so neat to see her face while she stared at the huge tanks. She also went with us to our wedding anniversary dinner and decided she wanted to be fussy, so we entertained her with crushed up crackers, which she managed to get everywhere! On Thursday, we went to Beaufort, NC which is a neat old town with a beautiful downtown on the waterway. Friday, Todd's cousin took us out on his boat on the waterway and it was so much fun. Unfortunately, we left on Saturday and drove home in the pouring rain. We stopped in Kernersville to see some of my family from Kansas before we finished the rest of the drive. It was a great week and I can't wait to do it again.
