Anniversary Trip to the Beach

     Last weekend we went to the beach just the 2 of us for our 11th anniversary. We had a great time and it was nice to be together just the two of us. We missed the kids, but they had a lot of fun going between the grandparents' houses. My grandparents bought a house at Emerald Isle back in 1982-83 and now it belongs to my mom and her twin sister. We get to go pretty often and love it there. We left for the beach Friday morning around 8:30am and finally got there around 1:30pm after making stops along the way. I took an afternoon nap while Daniel went for a bike ride. Friday night we ate at the local Oyster Bar inside Jordan's Restaurant since it was the last weekend for fresh steamed oysters, they were so good. Then we visited the Dairy Queen for dessert and went home and watched a movie we rented. Saturday I was really lazy, I watched TV, played on the computer, read, painted my toenails, and took a nap. Daniel took a nap too after his bike ride. Saturday night we went to Portafino's a local italian restaurant, then went to the movies to see Date Night, and then another trip to Dairy Queen. Sunday we got up rather early and went to Frost Restaurant for a big breakfast, then to Fort Macon to look around. We then headed home to see our babies!!!  It was a great weekend!

This pictures shows were a cannon ball was fired at the Fort and then rolled down the stairs making cuts as it went.

We love Emerald Isle! (and that top level of Fort Macon scares me to death!) SO glad you had a quiet, relaxing getaway. Those are few and far between!
