North Carolina






We had the best time in North Carolina! We spent 6 solid days on the beach. In that time the boys learned to boogie board, skim board, build sandcastles, hunt for crab, body surf and have tons o' fun! We had many animal encounters . . . chasing crabs at night, seeing dolphins, encountering many different bugs in the wildlife refuge, frogs, ospreys and pelicans. But the highlight for Charlie was the blueberry filled scat we found at the refuge. (For those of you not in the know, scat is animal cr . . . poop) Justin and I took a surfing lesson. I got up for 1 glorious second of the 2 hour lesson. Justin had much more success. The boys soaked up every possible second they had with their cousins and Justin and I enjoyed late night games of pit and canasta. (Who knew you could enjoy that game before the age of 80?) All in all, the Spencers heart the Outer Banks.

That picture of Charlie is insane. He is freaking three and he is boogey boarding?! Did he ride the wave for 7 miles?
