Home.

Hooray! We've finally made it back to North Carolina. And we're hoping to stay here for a good long while. We actually got home on Friday night, after some fun lighthouse sightseeing down the coast of Virginia.

Assateague Lighthouse

Old Cape Henry Lighthouse - The first lighthouse authorized by the First United States Congress. Errected in 1791, it lighted the entrance of the Chesapeake Bay until 1881 and was replaced by the New Cape Henry Lighthouse.

On Monday, we headed to Onslow Beach, about 2 hours from our house. Unfortunately, it was stormy and cold, so we came home early. But, on the bright side, Ben found a bunch of shark teeth! :)

We're so happy to be home and settling in a bit. And, since Ben has 2 weeks of leave, we're taking on a home-reno project. We're replacing the carpets in our main living areas with a hardwood look-alike laminate. Pictures to come!
