If there is anything I love, it is the beach. I could spend all of my days there and be happy!However, since I was not blessed to be the daughter of some rich gent, I'm not going to be lazily living out my days on the blessed sands of my own island any time soon. First and foremost, NC is beautiful! Nice wide beach for playing frisbee, hot sun, great landscaping. The downside- Freezing cold water, crabs running all over the place, and seashells EVERYWHERE.
Anyhow, the weekend was packed. We arrived Friday evening after taking a kinda, sorta, roundabout kind of way to get there. Thankfully it was still daylight and we were able to take a nice little stroll (sorry - no pics of that). Saturday started the adventures (since i passed out on the bed while chatting w/ Kim friday night, there was not a whole lot of time for playing). It was time to hit the beach and watch my pals play some crazy volleyball games. I like playing, but I'm pretty sure i would have been done after 2 maybe 3 games. These girls made it all the way to the championship game.
And for saying they were playing against college players and pros- They rocked it out and managed to win game 2 rather easily. However, an unlucky streak hindered their abilities in the 3rd game and the gold volleyballs went to the other team. You're still champs in my mind! I supported from the sidelines and happily handed out waters to the team!
There were parties to hit Saturday night, but playing sardines with a lot of strangers was not really my idea of a great time. The hammock outside was perfect for a little four person swing time. 'Getting to know you!' Best party time for sure!
The rest of the weekend was pretty relaxing. Beach, Pool, Play at the house. I didn't go anywhere else until Monday night for a movie. Check out the fun times.
I was supposed to leave Tuesday, but changed my mind and stayed one last day! Thankfully I did or this pyramid might never have happened. Note the awesome sweatshirts we are all sporting!
The group that stayed in our house was awesome! Many i didn't know or knew but don't often spend a lot of time with them. It was an awesome mix of people! Great times were had and hopefully many friendships formed! This isn't the whole group-but its a lot of it! Adios to Duck for another year! Live Fast, Get Dirty!!!
