Antley/Flowe Beach Trip

Normally this annual trip is to the condo at Myrtle Beach but it is all booked up with renters at this point! Lacey's boss has a beach condo and told her they could use it. They so kindly decided to invite us along!  It was a 2 bedroom and since none of us had ever seen the space, I decided it would be better to leave Baylor at home this time around. He stayed with my mom, and Jason's dad and step mom, so we knew he was in good hands. It was our 1st trip without him and was a little sad, but I think we made the best choice. 

The beach we went to was called Indian Beach and is on the "Crystal Coast" on Bogue Banks barrior island. It is on the south most tip of the Outer Banks. It was a good 6 hour drive (another reason we did not take Baylor). WORTH THE DRIVE! We had a blast and everything was gorgeous. The condo itself turned out to be really nice and big and open so we had plenty of room.

The 1st day, the kids spent the majority of their time messing up a giant sand hole that someone else had slaved over. On day 2, Lacey and I decided that we should make our own hole!

This is us breaking ground.

Luckily, the men eventually jumped in and helped us really get it going. Mickey put in the bench seating all around. 

Notice the stairs

We had great weather. 3 whole beach days. If we get to go again next year we will take Baylor and will stay longer!

We had a few nights out at dinner on the water. This area was beautiful and not commercialized at all. Real sand dunes everywhere. 

Meanwhile, back at home... Baylor tried his 1st plum! 

We missed him. We were so sad to leave but glad to see our happy little fellow.
