Long time....no post....but guess what...I'm back!!!

WOW!! I has been way too long since I last posted!!! We obviously have been busy Busbys!!!
Let's start with family visits....

The Busby's came for a visit at the end of May. It was so great to have family in town! While they were in town we did a little bit of everything....shopping, wine tasting, a visit to Carowinds amusement park, saw Wicked, grilled out & had a GREAT week!! Below is a picture from our visit to Carowinds, I am the only Busby that did not ride the flying coaster or any of the other crazy rides.....I am not much of a roller coaster fan, but it looks like they are having a BLAST!! And I have just realized that we ONLY took pictures while at Carowinds...I was not very good at documenting their visit!! I will promise to do better on the next visit!

Th Vinson's were next on the list for a visit. Todd & I met them in Bryson City for a mountain weekend getaway & then they came to Charlotte! While in the mountains we went hiking, tubing, & some went whitewater rafting! Below are some pictures from their visit.....

In early June Todd & I went to Carolina Beach, NC for an overnight camping/beach visit. We camped out at the Carolina Beach State Park. The camping was fun except for the raccoons....they kept us up ALL night long! We spent the daytime at a beach where you drive your truck (has to be 4-wheel drive) onto the sand to where ever you want to go for the day. I had no idea how bumpy sand would be to drive on, needless to say we went ~1/2 mile from the entrance and found a good spot. This beach was also dog friendly so Monroe was able to have his first taste of the Atlantic Ocean! In the beginning of the day he was pretty nervous, but by the end of the day he was playing in the water like a fish!!! Below are some pictures of our little beach trip.....

Well that is pretty much an update from us for the last few weeks!!! I am going to try to be better about posting more often!!! See everyone soon!
