Yesterday we got back from an awesome first summer vacation.  First we went to Clinton, and then to the Beach to spend 6 days enjoying the sun and the water.  The kids had a wonderful time swimming and fishing!  Then we headed off to Charlotte on Friday for a big meet up of the whole family.  It was a great time also!  It was capped off with a Charlotte Knights baseball game Saturday night (The Knights beat the Durham Bulls 11 to 2).  That evening was again capped off with an amazing fireworks display at the ball park!  X loved the game and we are planning on going to some Frederick Keys games now over the rest of the summer.  Both kids (and everyone else there) were amazed by the incredible fireworks display!  They’d never seen fireworks from so close up before and it was a joy to be able to watch them enjoying them.  Yesterday was the long trip home, but it was well worth all the driving we’ve done (over 1000 miles since the 25th).  We had a wonderful time both alone and seeing the rest of my side of the family.
