Ocean Isle Beach Week 2011

I have an amazing extended family!  I am sure that many of you would argue that you do too, but I have to brag on my family and their commitment to getting together every year.  We have traditions on both sides of my family.  On my dad's side we a memorable Thanksgiving each year and on my mom's side we have a Christmas family reunion the second Saturday in December and a Beach week each June. 

We just got back from our week at the beach and I want to share some pictures from our time together.  Keep in mind that we require a house and a condo to accommodate all of our family members.  We like to say that we spend most of the time talking about food and eating food!  I just try to make sure and take a nice long walk on the beach everyday and stay out of the kitchen as much as possible.  It is so much fun and makes so many lasting memories that bring a smile to my face all throughout the year!  Enjoy the pictures!
