A Monroe tradition is to vacation at the beach. Right now we are at the beach in NC. In the past we have rented houses, condos, and this year we are mostly in a motel. This motel is fun because every room has an ocean view. Raymond's family is in a house about a mile from us. We rented motel umbrellas and chairs. We get up in the morning and they are set up waiting on us.
Carl has 4 brothers and one sister. All the extended family is here except one grandson. When we go out to eat we are Monroe party of 35. We are celebrating Carl's mama's 80 birthday tomorrow. She will be like the Queen of England this year and have two birthdays- one the day she was born and another one when she'll have her celebration.
Today we spent lots of time at the ocean.
Lots of fun memories.
I feel sorry for families that are here with just their small family. When we are together we always have someone to visit with or go into the water with or go back tothe motel with. What a blessing.
I hope to have pictures soon.
