Christmas is coming....

Hanging out the huge Christmas tree in front of the mall.

Decorating at home.

Mae wanted a lot of candy canes on the tree this year :)

Carolina Beach!

The view from our balcony.

Mae and mommy being silly :-)

Mae loves the beach. It was a bit chilly, but that didn't stop her from playing in the sand.

Feeding the birds.

It was Mae's turn to take care of the class pet, Danny the Dinosaur.

Drawing in the sand.

The next few pictures are of the Riverfront district of Wilmington.

It was raining, so we went to the North Carolina Aquarium at Ft. Fisher.

Time to head home :(

In line to board the ferry.

On the ferry.

Bye bye Carolina Beach. We will be back!
