“My Baby Sister Emily” and her fiancé Chris are giving us a great opportunity this summer – they are getting married in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, which of course sets us up for a fabulous beach vacation!

We are staying at the Hilton Garden Inn Kitty Hawk (the site of the wedding) for the first four days, then will relocate to Summer Palace, our rental house, for the following week.

Hilton Garden Inn (the reception will be on the pier itself). 
Summer Palace, our vacation rental for the week following the wedding.  

I haven’t been to the OBX since…before they called it that! Our family vacationed there when we were kids and teenagers with a variety of friends and family. This year we will be with all of our nearest and dearest at different times throughout the wedding and vacation – and I can’t wait!
