A Very Du-Poulio-Rosiers Vacation ~ Part Deux

And now we continue our OBX adventures :)  What's a vacation without a trip to the beach?!  This was AJ's and Robert's first time at the ocean.  Both boys were hesitant about the big waves and weren't quite sure what to make of ALL THE SAND!  But they dug in and found some joy in beach activities.  The beaches on the OBX are just beautiful.  Miles of clean soft sand, warm(er) water, and DOLPHINS!  What's not to like?!

 

 

For some quieter time away from the house, we explored the light house in Corolla and the wild life preserve. I captured some of my favorite images of the boys here.  (I can't wait to frame some of these.  No...I still haven't done that either!)

 

AJ (3 Years Old...and too cool for pictures)

One of my absolute favorites <3

 

 

What do you do when you need a break from the sun and the pool?  Head to the aquarium! 

 



AJ took on the challenge of "saving a sea turtle".

 

 

And thanks to Mom and Dad, the "grown ups" were allowed to have a kiddo-free night and enjoy a meal without having to cut food into teensie tiny pieces. 

 

 

"Grown up" night out includes delicious cocktails in a fish head and a plastic dinosaur of course.







 

And in an amazing house such as the "Sweet Retreat", you need plenty of time to just lounge around.
