Finally....The Beach!!!!

The last week of July Matt and I made the 9 1/2 hour drive to Holden Beach, North Carolina! I had never been to the beach on the East Coast, except in Florida, so I was very excited to be there. The first night we just hung-out with Matt's parents (Martha and Tim), sister and brother in law (Mel and Nathan), and our niece (Becca). The first full day there we had a full morning on the beach and enjoyed watching Becca experience the sand/water for the first time! The next couple of days were rainy/cloudy when we got up so we ventured off the island to different towns to shop/explore. We also were able to visit Wilmington (where Matt went to college) and even got to visit the jeweler that made my wedding ring! One day we woke up and it was raining and we drove to Myrtle Beach and went to the Outlets. The final day we were there it was absolutely beautiful! It was a great trip overall and we are so glad that we got to go. Hope you enjoy the pictures!

Baby Eddie

So I know I have not posted about our beach trip in July, but I have to put up pictures of our new nephew Eddie. We didn't get to be at the hospital since I had school and volleyball, so we got up early on Saturday and went to Rome. For the next 3 hours or so I snuggled, kissed, squeezed, and just loved on Eddie. I did let Matt hold him too! ;) Cara and Chip are great parents and seemed so at ease with him. It is definitely an amazing experience to see your siblings be parents! I mean I knew Nickel and Chip would both be great parents considering all the practice they got in with me! The pictures are in the above post! I had to download blogger to my IPhone so I could upload the photos, so read both blogs!

My brother Chip and his wife, Cara brought "Eddie" into the world last night around 9:40 EST in Rome, GA! My mom, Dennis, and Nickel were there when he was born, and Matt and I will go sometime this weekend! Eddie is special because not only does he have our Dad's name-He is our first nephew/grandson! I already love him and I can't wait to see him this weekend!
