Anna and I drove out a day after the rest of the family, because we wanted to stay for a friend's wedding. It was fun riding in Anna's car, just the 2 of us. =)
I got my own room this year. I loved being able to go in my room and close the door to read, without worrying about someone else needing to get in. It was nice.
Ok, now for some pictures.
it poured on our way out
but it cleared up later
the first of many bridges we crossed

it rained our first morning there
so we stayed inside and played pool

right before dinner, we went down to the beach. the water was right at the bottom of the walkway!

the next day we went shopping. i thought this was funny:
we walked to the Sound after dinner
cool trees
Wednesday night we went to a restaurant for dinner
on our way back to the house, we stopped by the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse
the next morning, the weather was gorgeous!
running into the ocean
Dad building a sandcastle
at the pool
our last day, we went to Ocracoke Island to walk around and see the cool shops
this is my favorite shop:
this kitty was so sweet!
