After the wedding ...

I have to admit that it is a bit of a let down after the wedding

you're just so busy planning, shopping, getting together, traveling to the beach that when it's over, it's a little sad

Jacquelyn and Bucky's reception was so much fun that Johnny said

he wishes he could throw that kind of party

every month!

of course he didn't want the price tag that comes with that...haha

the other sad part is our families from Georgia and Texas left

and we miss them so much

and since we had no other activities planned, it was great to think

about going down to the beach and just RELAX

no appts with vendors

just an appt with the surf and the sand!

we went down there for an extra long weekend with my

sister and her husband

we wanted to treat them to a fun weekend

as a thank you for everything they did for us for the wedding



we went wandering around a bit while down there

here's the road to no where

a 5 1/2 mile long bridge

just to see nothing! haha

then we went over to our favorite little "small town USA"

Manteo, NC

they were having a Farmers Market ... fun!

we hung out on a the beach a lot .... and drank beer ... a lot

there was a motorcycle / car accident in front of our condo

that's about as much excitement as you will ever see in the OBX

We also visited Jennettes Pier while there

We spent a lot of time there through out the years

and have some really great memories

But Hurrican Isabel took it out a few years back

it's now re-built and beautiful

mostly, we just enjoyed relaxing

later...
