Week at Emerald Isle

This year, there was a slight "mix-up" with the vacation dates, so the McCulloch's made a last minute decision to travel up to North Carolina to spend a week on Emerald Isle.  We all have crazy schedules, so everyone came up when they could get away from work.  Whitney, Chris, Taylor, and Patches came up a couple of days early and hung out with us until we could get into the beach house on Sunday.  Mom, Dad, and Cash came up on Sunday night/early Monday morning.  Betsy and Michael got to the house earlyWednesday morning, and Steven came right after work Wednesday night.  It was so great to finally have the whole family together!!!

We spent most of our time laying out on the beach, playing in the ocean, cooking, EATING, playing Mario Cart and Commotion, and of course laughing. There is nothing we like to do more than talk and laugh, so we definitely got our fill over our week of vacation. 

I was so so so thankful that everyone got to come (even though it is a crazy long drive for all of them).  It meant the world to me and Steven.  Can't wait until next year because there will be a new little addition to our family to share in the fun :) 

Below are some pictures of our wonderful vacay!
