Ocracoke 2014

I am trying to catch up from last weekend still

we had a fabulous extended weekend vacay in the beautiful Outer Banks, NC

thanks to our wonderful friends, Bunn, Paula, and of course the entire Boddie clan for hosting a very large group of us at their gorgeous beach house on Ocracoke

this was our third year on this trip and it never disappoints 

and with a group of friends like ours it is nothing short of a good time

this is the whole gang

yep. that is a full sized volleyball court, two massive-ass flag poles, four tents, and a ridiculous number of coolers

Bunn is never one to come without toys
he handmade this portable bar. yes, that is rope trim. yes, it had a gold crab detail on the bar top. yes, it had multiple shelves behind there.
does it get better?
well yes, we added our Margaritaville machine and had frozen margaritas on the beach

Bunn had everyone bring a flag that describes them as couple...

here is the whole beach gang

every couple had matching Tommy Bahama chairs from Costco.
Jared and mine are the only ones that don't match...fail. 

beep.beep. this was our ride for the weekend

were adding a little bundle of joy to our fantastic group in January!
