There's nothing quite like the Stuenzi's week-at-the-beach. 50-some people all in one 18-bedroom house, playing games, making music, talking, eating, an endless supply of chocolate, a little sleep, and lots of fun! It's always a great time. This year has been challenging for us though. When you're a parent of young children you never really get a vacation because they're still with you! The boys have really connected with the other cousins this year and had a great time with them, but Tabitha has been up several times a night and very needy during the day. Fortunately, she warmed up to everyone quickly and they're all fighting over chances to entertain her.
This year we're in Corolla, North Carolina, at a house accessible only if you have 4-wheel drive. We literally had to drive on the beach and over the dunes to get to the house! It's been too cold to spend time on the beach this year, but from our bedroom we had a perfect view of the awesome sunrise over the ocean. I wish I could wake up to that every morning!
Tomorrow we'll head back home and get some rest while we look forward to the next Stuenzi-family gathering.
