Outer Banks

In October, my mom and I had off a couple days of school, so she decided to rent a beach house for us all for a whole week. The house was fabulous and since it was not peak season, the price wasn't too bad either. The kitchen, dining, and living area were on the top floor as well as the master bedroom. We could see the ocean from the top decks, but we were not ocean front. The middle floor had 4 bedrooms and three bathrooms with an extra sitting area. The bottom floor had another bedroom and bathroom as well as a game room with a pool table. Oh yeah, the house also had a pool! Thanks Mom and Dad for a GREAT trip!
I think she made these cookies about three times while we were there. Chocolate oatmeal peanut butter no bake cookies are the best and so is my mom.


Guitar Hero was the game that week. 
Joey and Jason battle.

Steve, in his PJs, takes on Jason.

Yes, we took Pepper.

Abby helped keep Pepper in line.
 We thought Pepper would really like the water. We were wrong. Since it was off season, pets were allowed on the beach. We only took him out there a couple of times because he just didn't like it. Oh well.


Pregnant Rachel and Jason



We visited the Jockey's Ridge State Park. Basically, all it is a big sand dune. It was really hot, but a lot of fun. There were even some brave souls hang gliding.

Going up. 





I really do have the best parents in the world - even if my dad always wears jeans . :)

Yeah, we're that cute.

Coming down.
