With every 4th of July also comes the much anticipated Voorhees' Family Beach Vacation in Duck, North Carolina. This year, like the many before, brought all the usual fun in the sun, but also the unfortunate threat of sharks. With several recent attacks off the Carolina coast, we were a little on edge about swimming too far out in the ocean. Thankfully, we were able to enjoy the surf close to the shore without so much as a nibble. And as you can imagine-when 50+ family members get together for a week and live in close proximity, the sharks on the land can be as dangerous as the ones swimming in the ocean. But I am happy to report that we all survived…or maybe I should say they all survived us?!?
It truly was another great week full of cousin bonding, beach games and playing in the waves. We are so thankful for our family and the effort they make to keep this trip a priority. The kids already have a count down until Beach Week 2016!
Packing is the least favorite part of this adventure…we kinda look like the Griswalds with 6 bikes strapped to the back of the Suburban!
