“Look at that sea, girls–all silver and shadow and vision of things not seen. We couldn’t enjoy its loveliness any more if we had
millions of dollars and ropes of diamonds.”
— L.M. Montgomery
I hope you all are having a wonderful summer so far! We went to the beach last week for a few days with my family. We spent most of our childhood going to the Outer Banks but it had been around ten years or so since we had all been together. It was so much fun getting to be there all together again!

I hope you all have a wonderful Monday!
I love the pics! Our family is leaving on Thursday to go to the Outer Banks! I'm a little nervous as I'm a Floridian and I've never been there. Thanks for the pics to make me excited! And I definitely need a hat like your sister's…. Marissa
Y'all have such a beautiful family!
Oh my goodness, what a wonderful group of pics!
Are those your sisters? You have such a gorgeous family!

I miss the beach! And the wee wee tots!

Looks like a great time! LOVE the colors in these pictures. 🙂 (I'm also kind of dying for a little baby now).
Jennifer, Your photos are beautiful. It seems as if you have such a close and fun family. I hope you all had a GREAT time. Lola looks so peaceful in these images. And that Lillie is just the cutest!!!!
Three very random thoughts:
1) My daughter also calls my parents Mimi and Papa. I thought we were the only ones.
2) Lola is absolutely darling. She makes me baby hungry.
3) Wow! Those are some beautiful, stylin' aunts!
Looks like sooo much fun! Hope you had a blast with your family…
looks like a wonderful time! your family is beautiful! susan

What a wonderful family time and a beautiful family. Lovely photos.
I am glad to see you out and about as a family. Hope the little one is doing better. You're all beautiful and in our prayers.
Glad I made it in a pic… Halfway down I was starting to get worried haha
What beautiful pictures! Glad you're having a wonderful summer so far! Still praying for you sweet family (:
Is everyone in your family beautiful!??? Looks like a wonderful vacation with people you love at the beach, what could be better than that…

wonderful pictures of a gorgeous family!
Jennifer, I LOVE the OBX so much…..I spent some time in Hatteras and I have such beloved, fond memories of that trip….now I know what James Taylor meant when he sang "In my mind I'm going to Carolina". I am so happy for you. Also, can't wait for Dear Lillie Etsy to open back up girl…I need toddler clothes for my 3 yr old Baby girl! Miss you big time!
Your girls are just precious and beautiful! Where do you go in the OBX? We live in just south of Charlotte in SC but have never been. I want to go so badly, but it is quite a drive compared to Charleston and Edisto.
