Alger Family Trip to Nags Head, NC

I have been meaning to give an update for almost a month now and unfortunately with all the other things that needed to get done, it kind of fell to the bottom of the list!  SO, we moved to North Carolina.  We arrived here on July 6th only to find out that our truck of stuff was still in Ohio and wouldn't arrive for a couple days.  Once the truck arrived, we unpacked and quickly repacked for a week vacation to the Outer Banks, NC with my family.  Here are some pictures of the trip, which was amazing:


We played at the beach:










We had an Alger Family Beach Olympics:

Team 1


Team 2

3-legged race





At night we went crab hunting:

These little guys come up out of the sand at night and run around.  Once you get past the part where they remind you of really huge spiders, they're actually kind of cute.



We had a Rock Band Tournament in which everyone participated, even Grandma and Grandpa:





And what would a vacation be without a little guy-bonding, fishing time?





And my brother took our family photos:









It was such a fun trip, thanks Mom and Dad!  We didn't want it to end.  Hopefully since we live close we'll be able to do it again soon.

Oh my gosh Rex's face in your little family picture is too much... it just needs to be squeezed and kissed like a million times.

Also I was looking over your Seattle pictures and I immediately wanted to be there... it also reminded me of when you moved there and how stinkin cute you and Josh were!
