We had lots of visitors at the beach. This mama was sending out an SOS and the people came! Taking a vacation with kids and a hard working husband is more like a 'trip.' Carolina Beach is super family friendly. We hit up the aquarium, putt-putt, ice-cream, the boardwalk and lots of Britt's Donuts and Jersey Mike's subs. I am already looking forward to next year - or maybe one more time this summer, hint-hint.
Friends invited us over to grill out at their parents condo. Three out of five boys were ready to roll out on the party boat!

Britt's donuts with Grandmama & Granddaddy.
My bestest friend forever lives in Wilmington and brought her crew over one morning for some beach action.
We met some cousins for dinner and Boardwalk music, games and fireworks!
We even convinced Newlywed-Nat to come for a day! More Putt-Putt at the boardwalk ensued. Seriously if you are a little bit redneck, you will love the boardwalk. Apparently we are a lot a bit redneck.
And on the last night, we jam out. With friends, on the boardwalk. That is Ellie in the background. Her dad opened the J-Mikes in Carolina Beach. She and Theo may marry one day. Just saying.
