Just across the street from "Drumstick" is a canal that is full of turtles. Rhaegan loves going over there to feed them bread.
It might be hard to see them, but there were tons
of large and very small turtles. They had to compete
though with the fish for the bread.
Tom had to hold Rhaegan really tight because she
got a little excited when she threw the bread.
We all asked each other who would be the first
in to get her if she fell in. (?)
Nicholas had another great day building
an even bigger sand castle.
Denise decorated it with sea shells.
Everyone stopped to take a look.
The tide was just getting to it at 7pm.
Wonder if it will still be standing tomorrow?
A traditions the parents have each year is to
take the ferry to Ocracoke Island and eat
lunch at "Howard's." It's a great burger joint.
We drive the car right onto the ferry and it
only takes about 30 minutes to get to the
next island. It's fun just to get away for a
few hours.
Denise wanted to throw Nicholas an early surprise
30th birthday (It's really 21st of Nov). So while
they went for a walk on the beach we decorated
the house with streamers and balloons.
I'm not sure how "surprised" he was, but it was
still fun to sing to him and eat cake and ice cream.
Happy Early 30th Nicholas!

It looks like everyone is having so much fun. Lucy is loving looking at Nick's sand castles. We've been following along with your blog, but I often have Maggie in my arms. That makes it hard to comment. Glad you are having so much fun! Say hello to everyone from me.
The Taylor fam is just so cute!
And Nick's castle... amazing! The boys just asked to see the pictures again for the fifth time.
