Hatteras Lighthouse

By Amity -
We visited the Hatteras Lighthouse.  Last time we were there Mac was too small to go up into the lighthouse.  You have to be 42 inches tall and able to climb all of the 270 some stairs on your own, he was thrilled he could do it this time.  Emily and Pappy stayed below while we got our aerobic workout climbing the stairs.  The view was well worth the climb, it was amazing!  After going up into the lighthouse Pappy bought the kids a gift from the gift shop and Mac worked on his quiz for his "ranger" badge at the house.  After he finished he said his "pledge".

Friday night Christina came out from LA to hang with us. John headed out early Saturday morning to spend a week fishing in Mexico with Jimmy for his 40th birthday!  Saturday Christina and the kids played almost all day long.  From shooting targets with Mac to being a princess, then playing Zombies with the kids and lots of Uno....all before lunch!  We hung out at the pool for a little in the afternoon, then met Mike and Sarah for some dinner and arcade games.  What an awesome way to end our last night with Grandma Cheryl, Mike and Christina.  I think everyone had a blast and I think Christina slept pretty well Saturday night!!!!!!

The forecast for today was a high of 100 degrees with humidity so what else is there too do on a hot day but hit the movies. I surprised the kids with lunch then we went and saw Toy Story 3 in 3D, the kids loved it. Emily did much better than I expected and only got bored the last 20 minutes or so. Mac of course couldn't take his eyes off the movie.
