Lots of fun in Morehead City

We recently returned from yet another trip...the fourth of the summer! Jon had to go to Morehead City, NC for a law enforcement conference and I have family in the area, so of course I said yes when he asked me if I wanted to come along. We arrived at the Hampton Inn in Atlantic Beach on Wednesday afternoon and I was excited to find out that we had a very nice suite to stay in (thanks CG!).

My cousin, Adam, lives in MHC so we met up with him for dinner at a Mongolian Grill....the food was awesome! The conference was on Thursday, so while Jon was working I met up with a friend of ours that we had met while stationed in Corpus Christi, TX, who now lives in Jacksonville. We had a nice lunch together while her son and Laura entertained each other (and us!).

That afternoon, Mimi and Aunt Bev met us in MHC where we walked around the down town area a bit, and then drove over to Beaufort and walked some more. We had dinner in downtown Beaufort at a place called Clawson's...and Laura tried to fit a whole dinner role in her mouth!

The hotel was so nice (and reasonably priced) that we decided to spend a second night there. Friday morning we walked over to the beach to enjoy the waves for a bit before packing up.

We checked out of the hotel and drove to Hubert, NC to spend our last night at my Uncle Phil and Aunt Bev's house. We had a nice time with them and found out that Laura is a big fan of Aunt Bev's yummy home-made bread! Every time we gave her a piece she got very excited and said, "Mmm-mmm-mmm!" while eating it.

Laura also had fun playing with my cousin Eric's step-daughter, Christina. All-in-all we had a fun time enjoying our Labor Day weekend a few days early.
