OBX 2010

In mid-September we spent a week in the Outer Banks; just the 4 of us. We were blessed with amazing weather, minimal crowds, and lots of quality family time. Almost all of our pictures were taken on the beach because we basically spent all our time soaking up the sun and playing in the sand.

First day there...ready for the beach!

Look Who's in Preschool!

Addie started preschool last week! She goes on Tuesday and Thursday mornings and has been loving it so far. As you can see, she was very excited for her first day...

Just Playing Around

We are so fortunate to have a number of great playgrounds nearby. Yesterday we had beautiful weather so we took advantage by spending some time at the park.

Swinging "up to the sky!"

On the Move

It's official...Luke is crawling. He has progressed from a cross between an army crawl and an inchworm to a full-fledged crawler.

Cute little crawler


Super Luke!

Grange Fair!

Last week we went to the Grange Fair. Addie loved seeing all of the animals. Luke on the other hand was not a huge fan. We finished the evening with a few rides.

Daddy and the kiddos, ready to go!


Addie loved this spaceship ride

Luke was obviously excited to watch her

So much fun!

Donut Thief

We are big fans of donuts in the Fisher fam. Addie especially loves this breakfast treat. One morning she had eaten her usual glazed donut and we had mistakenly left a Boston creme out on the table. After a few seconds of quiet in the kitchen, this is what we found...

What's that brown peeking out under your cup?
