OBX Vacation

July brought a very exciting Ward family beach vacation. It was especially fun because we hadn’t been doing OBX beach vacations since the boys were born (the drive is just too far when they’re really little) but we thought they were old enough to be entertained by movies in the car so it was time to give it a try.  We also learned that there’s nothing better than the promise of a McDonald’s happy meal for good behavior :)  John and I were able to go down a few days early while the boys stayed with Grandma and Grandaddy which was so nice.  We even decided to do a helicopter ride around the islands!
