Dave's cousin Neil and Ashton came to visit Raleigh for the day from OBX with their girls Rubi and Margot.  We met them at Pullen Park then they headed to our house for a quick tour of Raleigh and dinner.

Let's hope the photographer has better luck than I did.

Oak Island

We headed to Oak Island for our annual Post Tax Season vacation!  We stayed at Ellen's house and enjoyed the beach.  The weather mostly cooperated and only rained one day.  We headed to the movies that day and on to Myrtle beach for some shopping and dinner.
