all the way to the atlantic

sunrise: kitty hawk, nc


zoo: asheboro, nc
duck, nc


spencer, olive and i made the long trek from idaho to north carolina last week. it was olive's first time visiting nana and papa marshall and "pig"(their cat).

we went to the nc zoo in asheboro and it was AMAZING. spencer and olive fed the giraffes, the chimp exhibit was impressive, and we watched the elephants splash in the lake up close. the zoo was massive and really wooded and natural, we kept saying it felt like we were actually seeing them on a safari. a must see if you're in the area!

we took olive to the ocean for the first time at the outer banks. we toured the wright brothers monument, saw the hatteras lighthouse, and played at the beach.

we had so much fun playing, and shopping and talking,(and the 8 hours of travel on either end were...bearable).

thanks for having us come nana and papa marshall!
we miss you and "KITTY"
