welcome to my final post about our trip to ny!
i think at this point it’s thursday on our second week.
jake had the day off (a rarity). and i’m pretty sure it was rainy and gross.
so we had a lazy day. and i made jake pick us up some subs. from southside.
i don’t know why i forgot to take a picture of the actual sub.
that’s the only pic from thursday. i have no idea what else happened.
my mom was off again on friday.
we went kayaking for a bit.
the varlands came back again for some more beach time.
my mom was volunteering, so the kids and i went to have dinner at the varlands. we ordered this super delicious pizza from big pauly’s. and had margaritas, thanks to julie’s awesome husband. 🙂
some dessert and a swing.
the party quickly turned crazy, as any party with 7 children under age 9 is wont to do. so we headed home.
saturday.
lazy.
my mom and i took anna to tie dye at the beach. (they actually came out awesome, but i screwed up the after care and we “accidentally” left them at my moms).
afternoon slushpuppies.
then some boating.
sunday was the grand finale.
frankie came out and we picked up grampa from the va and took him to the pok-a-dot for lunch.
my last beef on weck for now. 🙂
back at my mom’s, we went to the beach again. hazel was trying to run with the big kids, but this happened.
we also decided one last trip to visit jake at olivers was in order.
he took good care of us, my little ice cream scooper baby bro.
and then it was all over.
we woke up early monday morning and hit the road back to nc. the kids were fantastic. we ended up only stopping twice and there was no traffic and we rolled in at just under 11 hours. and our first interstate trip was in the books. 🙂
