My first blog ever!

Well, I am officially trying to blog! I guess I'll have to catch you guys up on the last little while. This summer we lived in Charlotte, North Carolina for Nick's job. It was pretty stressful but we got through it. We are back home, in Springville, finally! We didn't have much time to play this summer because Nick was working so much. I made Nick take time off once for his birthday and we went to Myrtle Beach! It was about 4 hours south east of us and we had so much fun! We went with two of our friends James and Carl Saunders. We only got to go to a couple places because we were so rushed. We started at the famous Ripley's Aquarium. Nick and I got to touch Sting Rays!
They were so slimmy. We had lots of fun. James and Carl were so funny! They were scared to touch them! We also saw tons of cool fish! I just love tropical fish. They are so pretty. After the aquarium we went to dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe. They even gave Nick his own birthday sundae!

Once we were done with dinner, we walked the board walk along the coast. It was beautiful. The next morning we decided to spend the rest of our time at the beach. It was the first time that James and Carl had ever been to the ocean, and it was our first time seeing the Atlantic ocean! I was surprised how far I could walk out in the ocean. The bottom didn't drop off for a long time! We even saw a shark! It was a little one but it still freaked us all out! After that we all were a little nervous getting back in the water, but that didn't last long! Nick was sure loving his time off! He is always the funny guy! We sure had fun and it was sooo nice to get to spend some quality time together! Even though it was a short little getaway, it was well worth it.
Well, this blogging thing isn't so hard. I think I can get used to this.
