In honor of Miles' upcoming first birthday, we decided to take a trip to South/North Carolina to see Dave's sister and her family and to visit Miles' birth mom. I don't have a lot of paid time off accrued yet, so our trip was a fairly quick one, but we had so much fun and are glad we got to go. Unfortunately Miles' birth mom was unable to meet up with us which was sad, but hopefully we'll get to see her the next time. We hope to make it an annual trip!
While we were there we got to see an oak tree that is estimated to be between 300-400 years old and got to play in the ocean. Shannon also agreed to watch Miles overnight so we could have a night away in honor of our 10th wedding anniversary that happened last May. We had such a nice time and appreciate Shannon and her family taking such GREAT care of our cutie pie. From what we heard, he did a great job without mom and dad around.

He was more interested in eating the tree than getting his pic with the tree

Miles asleep at the beach in his PJs
It started pouring rain so we had to take cover for a bit
Soaked!!!
Miles' first experience with the ocean
He didn't have a great nap so he was extra clingy and not too fond of the waves
We celebrated his b-day early with the Garlands
He LOVED the cake

DESSERT!!!
Relaxing!!!
While we were waiting at the back of the plane to get off, the flight attendant thought Miles was the cutest thing so she decided to take pictures
Family photo*I have a panorama shot from our hotel balcony that I was hoping to post with these photos, but the software I need to do that is in a box in Miles' bedroom and he is currently falling asleep so I'll have to post it later.
