Outer Banks Trip

We just got back from our long trip to Outer Banks NC (OBX!!) It was a good chance to relax and lay by the pool all day. It was an 11 hour drive. Once we got there, everyone (all 17 of us!!) had fun hangin out together and going to the beach and pool. We got to watch the beautiful sunset every day!. One day we went to Okracoke, a little island that you have to take the ferry too. It was so much fun. We got to sit right at the front of the boat. It almost made you feel that you were driving on the water!! It was pretty breezy down there, so you didnt know exactly how much sun you were getting. Dustin and I both came home with sunglass eyes! (and adam loves to remind me of that!) We saw a shark that had been swept up no the beach and went hunting crabs at night. They were all over the place, so many that almost every step they were running from you. We had such a great time and now have a good summer tan :)

Dustin is racing too!

Dustin has now decided to race on Friday night before the big race for my brother. It is called fast friday at Commerce race track. He has raced one other time before in SC, so this will be an exciting experience. Check him out in the pic, this was the last time he raced the truck!

DON'T MISS IT!!

Just wanted to remind everyone that Adam's race in Commerce is this weekend!! May 17 & 18. The events will begin on Saturday morning and go into Sunday (so whatever day you can make it) The parentals are having a cater come for lunch and cook BBQ (and chicken for those of you like me!) So try and make an appearance. Adam is really excited and is doing very well this year. It is def. not a weekend to miss!!

Strawberry Pickin

I finally convinced Dustin to take me to the Strawberry field near our house!! We had a ton of fun and ended up getting some sweet and juicy strawberries. We have been making every kind of dessert that you can make with strawberries!! Smoothies, dips and still to come... some cheescake! Dustin had the perfect 'strawberry pickin picture'!! Perfectly placed.

It's been a while

WOW!! Sorry it has been so long since I have updated the site. We have been out of town camping in Pigeon Forge! It was so relaxing and so much fun! We went up there for Dustin's Bday + the Rod Run Show (car show) that they have every year. We saw so many cars and walked our legs off! It is about a two mile strip and at least once a day, we would walk either half way or all the way to the end. Great exercise! Dad bought a car...again! He promised not to, but it was so pretty and such a great deal! That is a picture of it to the left on the trailer! We are now back to work and so busy, but that it a great thing!! We are looking forward to this weekend.. NHRA racing for Dusin, dad, and Adam and the Lion King for mom and I! Then next weekend we are headed down to Dustin's grandparents for some chill time in the country. We have a big summer ahead of us and can't wait to share it with everyone. Have a great weekend! :)

Scrapbooking

Well I am finally catching up on my scrapbooking!! I was about 7 months behind :( I know I know! Trust me, I am paying for it! I have now caught back up to about 5 months. I was writing to see if anyone new a good scrapbooking website or store. I have been sort of disappointed in the ones that I have been using lately. They just don't have the supplies that I want.. and the creativity! I have been using Hobby Lobby the most for scrapbooking lately.. but if you have any suggestions please let me know! thanks
love nicole
