East coast gathering!

After months of anticipation, our East Coast family reunion finally arrived. We were so excited to have all of my siblings and my parents come out here for a week-long beach trip at the Outer Banks in North Carolina. We really appreciate the sacrifices everyone made to come all the way out here (from Utah, Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Vermont). Everyone in my family is now in a different state. It was an amazing week that went by way too fast.

Some flew into D.C. and drove down with us. We had a few hours Friday night to explore the area. We stopped in Old Town for some burgers at BGR.


Cousins!








(It was actually our 8-year anniversary so we shared a shake to celebrate.)





We headed into D.C. and went to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial and the Lincoln Memorial. The kids were mostly excited about the fireflies.
