Our last day in the Outer Banks started with a wild horse tour for some of the group. Maddi chose to do the horse tour over parasailing and she loved it. Maddi, Zoe, and Grace were the only "kids" who went and they look like they are having a great time!
Some of the wild horses they saw...
When they got back Mike made omelets for everyone. Mike loves to cook and he even showed Maddi how to fry eggs. She made her own fried eggs a few times while we were there. After everyone had a full belly, they went for some geocacheing. I didn't go on this adventure either, but they all had a great time.
One of their geocaches lead them to the shopping we had gone to the day before. Everyone stopped for some ice cream to refuel. Cade really enjoyed his time with Grampa.
Everyone was hot and went for a swim after the geocaching.
Unfortunately, we didn't get many pictures of Emalyn with family members, because she has/had some major separation anxiety going on. She is happy as can be if we are in the room with her but if someone else tries to hold her she is not having it. She did last a little while with her Grampa before she decided she was done and wanted mommy/daddy back. Such a stinker!
I didn't put any of the pictures here, but Brett and Cade went crabbing and when they went to put the crabs back in the water, there was a rattlesnake! Creepy! We ended the night with another silly session. Maddi and Grace were posing with their silly headbands.
Some silly cousins...
The kids were trying to solve Mike's brainteasers. They actually did a pretty good job.
Grampa and Texas Grammy used Maddi and Cade in their fishing skit. Alex came up with a jeopardy game with we all had a lot of fun playing. It was a very fun week with the McDonald clan and lots of good memories were made. We left bright and early the next morning to catch our flight. It was an easy flight and we were home safe and sound. We loved the Outer Banks, and I'm sure we'll be back there again soon.
