The first week we were here, a lady and I started talking at the park near by. She invited us to go to the Life and Science Museum with her and her daughter Paige, since she was a member and could get us in for free. We were touched by her kindness and had a great time going. We've met there with them a few times now. They are so fun to be with-The Lord really blessed us with our new friends! We walked on the Dinosaur Trail. There's live bears, wolves, farm animals, turtles, snakes, etc. Carter thought it was funny to eat watermelon with no hands! We went to our new friend Marissabel's house where the kids played with her kids, as well as her bunnies and fed the neighbors horse.
We took a family trip to Wrightsville Beach at the ocean. It was such a relaxing, fun day. The drive, if you take the right ramp, is about 2 hours, 15 minutes. I made it a little over 3, but we know now :-) (Above) I now have a buddy to relax with on the beach towels, collect shells with, and watch everything going on around us. Jason finally has someone to play sports with on the beach! All Carter wanted to do was dribble the ball around. He had quite a fan club watching and got lots of "wows" from others The air was about 87, the water was 82...ahhh!
