a few from OIB

OIB. ocean isle beach. a tiny little place just inside the border of north carolina - slightly north of myrtle beach. at the end of june the voight clan rented an awesome beach house at OIB to celebrate both my mother and father-in-laws' 60th birthdays. the house was wonderful and had enough room to comfortably fit all nine of us (and each family had their own bathroom/room, which is very important for a successful vacation!). we did a lot of beach walking, porch rocking and, well, eating and drinking. we may or may not have gone through three bags of cool ranch doritos and two bottles of pina colada mix in eight days....

all in all we had a great time - the guys played a couple rounds of golf and the girls got out for dinner and outlet shopping one night (to which we only made it to one store for the entire 2.5 hours we were there). we took turns making dinner each night and had a few dinners out - if you are ever out at OIB, i suggest you skip the "giggling mackeral"...he is only giggling because he fooled you in thinking you would receive fresh, well prepared seafood...however they did happen to carry the brand of wine the voights keep stocked in our house - thanks to a hometown country club (we even served it at our wedding!)

thought i would share just a few of the photos i have gone through so far - so  many to sort through.

These are sooo good! I really need to get a nice camera so my pictures are prettier. Hmmm, maybe a birthday request!

Love the pics, but I keep waiting for the camera to fall in the ocean...like on the second to last picture. Brave, girl, brave...
