Kiwi Crate: Gardening

Annana gave Grace something called a Kiwi Crate for her birthday. Basically its crafts and activities that are delivered to your door once a month. Our first crate is a gardening crate. It came with two projects. A window garden project and a designing flower pots project. So far we've planted squash seeds and bean seeds in our window garden.

Nags Head Vacation: Part Four

As I've mentioned before, while on vacation it rained most of the time. On our last full day of being there Brooke and I decided to take Crewe and Grace to see a movie. They chose Madagascar 3. It really was a cute movie, but nothing is a cute as these two! :)

Nags Head Vacation: Part Three

Our cousins that live in Florida were down for the week! They made a trip to Ocracoke while they were nearby and stopped to visit us in Nags Head on their way through! It was wonderful to see them and get some playtime together in the pool.

Nags Head Vacation: Part Two

During our Nags Head vacation we only got two beach days in due to rain! This beach day was on Friday! Crewe came and spent the night with us Thursday night so he and Grace could play together and could spend all day on the beach Friday!

Big Daddy & Scott joined us around 3 and Andy and Brooke joined us around 4:30.
