{Ocean Isle Beach} Trip!

We spent the last week at Ocean Isle Beach!  The first part of the week Sharon, Phillip, Kimberly and Nathan were there for our 1st annual Cole Family Beach Trip!  We had a lot of fun at the beach and playing mini golf.  Camden loved having everyone there.  He loves the ocean and loved driving his tractor through the sand.  The rest of the week we relaxed at the beach, shopped, ate and well...that's pretty much it!  We always love going to the NC beaches in the summertime.  Scott and I couldn't help, but talk about how things were going to be the next time we came to the beach and had 2 kids with us!

{Happy 1st Anniversary} Roanoke, VA

Scott and I celebrated our 1st Wedding Anniversary this Sunday!  We didn't want to go anywhere far or for too long so we decided on Roanoke, VA.  What a beautiful city!  It sits in a valley among the mountains.  Known as the "Star City of the South," the city constructed a giant star to sit up on the mountain!  We had a lot of fun walking around town shopping and visiting their Farmer's Market.  We also stayed at the Hotel Roanoke - so beautiful and full of history!  It was a perfect day and a perfect way to celebrate our 1 year anniversary!

{Hurst/Ryan Beach Trip} Pawley's Island

Mom, June, Theresa and Sarah all came to North Carolina last week to visit!  We had so much fun!  We went to Pawley's Island (love it there) and Charleston - that was just for the weekend.  Once we got back to NC we drove down to Charlotte and then to the mountains!   Make sure to check out our pictures to see everything that we did!  It was a great visit - I can't wait for another one!
