Flashback: 4th of July & Vacation

So, we spent the 4th of July in Greenville with Coleson's family. Downtown Greenville is absolutely beautiful. If you've never been, I highly recommend it. There is an amazing park right in the middle of downtown with a river, a suspension bridge, waterfalls, and everything. We had a great time walking around and checking out all the food and fun. The fireworks were cool, although they didn't start until really late. Ryan did wonderful! He stayed up, wasn't too fussy, and actually watched the fireworks. We had a great time celebrating Ryan's first fourth of July with the family.

We left from there for Rocky Mount NC and on to the Outer Banks where we met up with my parents, my sister, and Brian. We spent a week in a house on the beach in Nags Head NC. It was a really nice place and we enjoyed hanging out with everyone and relaxing. The beach was great, although fairly windy (thanks hurricane Bertha). We tanned, played horseshoes, walked the beach, set up Ryan's baby pool, and did all sorts of fun beachy stuff. We also enjoyed lots of delicious meals, played fun games, saw the Wright Brothers memorial (that was the big rock in the earlier photo), climbed sand dunes, and visited a lighthouse. Thanks Mom and Dad for a super vacation!
