for kai's birthday (i'm only a month behind!), we spent the weekend at carolina beach. i love the beach in the Fall - the water was still warm enough for swimming and at night it was cool and crisp. our hotel room was right on the beach so we enjoyed great views and the sound of the ocean made for excellent background noise. the girls loved playing in the sand , taking long walks on the beach and our trip to the aquarium. Taty joined us on this beach adventure, and was very helpful managing our two little crazies, even allowing Kai and I a dinner out at a nice nearby restaurant. we took the ferry to Southport, where we enjoyed a nice seafood lunch, on the way home.
