Diggers Dungeon

Today Alex and I took Liam on a special trip to Diggers Dungeon. To say he loved it would be an understatement! It was a pretty chilly and misty day but we still we able to walk around and see all the trucks. Liam got two new monster trucks, a t-shirt, and a new play mat that looks like a monster truck track. 

We are 99% sure we saw Dennis Anderson working in the shop, he is the creator and driver of the Grave Digger truck. 

Liam was so so so excited when he stopped the red grave digger truck he started skipping to it and said "its red grave digger....YAY!!" 

trying to lift the tire out of the ground because "mama this tire is stuck"

Riding in grave digger!!

Peeking in the shop window where they are working on the grave digger truck, the real one! 

the poor thing is so scared of heights 

pooped out on our way to lunch! 

OBX - Saturday

As soon as we got to our house on Saturday we changed and ran to the beach as fast as we could because we knew it may have been our only hot day to enjoy it. Both kids LOVED the beach....the sand, the waves, everything! 

Dinner time! 

Alex's parents got Liam a red guitar that he has been playing non stop, its adorable! 

Liams concert :-) 

My beach babies! 

OBX- Sunday "Mama It's A Dalmatian Fishie"

Yesterday we took the kids to the Aquarium on Roanoke Island.

Both of the kids had a great time seeing all the "fishes". 

Everyone laughed at Liam when we took him to see the sharks and he clung to Alex and said "ooooh no those sharks are scary". 

Liams BBF the "puffer fishie" or what Liam also called the "dalmatian fishie" because he was white with black spots. 

 

Our two attempted family pictures. 

spaghetti dinner time!

Visiting Uncle Matt

We are officially on our first family vacation!! Whoop Whoop!! We are spending the week in Outer Banks with Alex's family and our friends Jer and Kim. Alex and I (and the kiddos, of course) decided to leave Frday night and drive through the night, just like how we use to do the Indy/PA trips. Let's just say Liam is still an awesome traveler and Lucy....well....less so BUT we made it! 

Our frist stop was at Matt's house. He lives about three hours from OBX so we just had to make it a point to stop and see him! Liam was so excited to go see Uncle Matt!!! We got there around 7am on Saturday. 

Uncle Matt and Liam (who looks like he joined Fight Club after his run in with the train table handle. 

Our southern breakfast with Bojangles!

Matt had told me earlier in the week that one of the things we could do that he thought Liam would like was feed the ducks. All morning Liam kept asking to "go feel duckies" and let's just said that once we did go feed the ducks, oh my word, we fed the DUCKS!

Taking a stroll around to see everything. 

A little later Matt and I took the kids to walk around campus while Alex stayed back to nap. Here are the kids with Pee Dee the Pirate. 

The trees said "HUG ME" i could not resist :-)
