north carolina on our minds

This weekend we had a whirlwind road trip to sunny/humid North Carolina. I didn't take nearly enough pictures (I'm having to steal some to pad this meager post), but please know we had a friggin' blast.

Our trip unfolded in three parts:

1. Playing at the Lansing's lakehouse on Lake Gaston. We swam and ate and wakeboarded and waveran and dove off tall docks. It was a short visit but we're really happy we got to hang out with Ted, Joy, Amelia, and the gang.

If you sneak a picture on our camera, I'm going to put it on our blog. Simple as that.

2. Meeting up with the Condon fam in Chapel Hill. Jacob was one of Doug's roommates back at BYU, and it was so good to finally meet the delightful Halle, Annie, and Maisy. Jacob recently graduated from UNC Dental and they're headed up to Alaska to start being grown-ups. Thank goodness we saw you all before you left! Thanks again for letting us drop in on you.



3. And last but not least, spending a fabulous evening with the Thompsons in Raleigh. Connor is our brother-in-law Joel's brother, and practically like family. We had so much fun laughing with these guys--Connor, Michal, Dylan, Ashlyn, and Corbin--and Doug proved his mad wrestling skills to the kids. We'll definitely need to make it back to Raleigh soon.
