angry ocean...

the guys stayed up late monday night playing poker...so i was on "morning duty" to keep the kids quiet til the rest of the house was ready to be awake.

we went on a walk.
to have a picnic breakfast on the beach!

normally this would be a great idea.

but it was cold.
and spitting rain.
and super windy.

the ocean was ANGRY!

we've NEVER seen the water like this in the outer banks!

this is as far as we made it. {this was around 7:30 am}
to the walk-over.
the kids were troopers.
{i felt so badly that we didn't bring jackets! it was COLD!}
