Come On Our Adventure With Us...

We are off to New Zealand where J.P. will be working at the National Institute for Water and Atmospheric Research. The whole family has joined him, so we can have some fun down under. To share this and future adventures we have started this blog. To view a map of our NZ travels, click on this link: Our NZ travel map

A Nap

I'm glad Molly still occasionally enjoys sleeping in Dad's arms.  This was a the best gift for Father's Day.  I will miss these moments. Sob sob.  Yes, we know she shouldn't be using a pacifier.  But she's much more tolerable when she has it!

Pirates! ...of Penzance

Went to the Outdoor Theatre at the Roanoke Island Festival Park to enjoy UNCG's production of this classic.  It was grea fun and the kids loved it...until the mosquitos got voracious after nightfall.

Ernest

The move has been hard on Ernie, but he's enjoying his new home now when he gets to run to the Sound (we live down the road from Albemarle Sound) or swim in the ocean (the beach is less than a mile).

Nice Sunset

We have a nice porch on our new home, and this evening the light in the sky was wonderful!

Beautiful Night to Fly a Kite

On my drive home from a rip current seminar at a local firehouse, I had a great view of many people enjoying a nice night on Jockey's Ridge.  We will need to do that!

Lowes...Again

This trip to Lowes the girls got to get down and dirty making wooden airplanes.  Boy, they had fun....for free!  Thanks Lowes!

Lowes and Frozen Custard

After another trip to Lowes (of course dressed as a mermaid...we now live on the Outer Banks, everyone wears this!), Emma gets to enjoy a frozen custard.  Yum!

Moved to the Outer Banks

It wasn't fun or a pretty process (we have a lot of junk), but in the beginning of June, we packed up our vehicles (many times) and two Uhauls and moved to our new home in Kill Devil Hill on the Outer Banks.  This is where the Wright Brothers first took flight, and we are ready to take off on our own adventure.
