Outer Banks 2013: Day 10, Sunday June 16th

8:00 AM
Well my little brother woke everyone in the room up again today, but today it was because he didn't feel good :( I hope he starts feeling better soon so he can enjoy the rest of this vacation! Well, since we are up me and dad are going to get ready and go get breakfast.

10:00 AM
I really like this hotel's breakfast :) I made my own waffles this morning! :) After we took breakfast back to mom and Elijah, and had breakfast ourselves, we walked down to the beach. It turns out there was some type of obstical race on the beach this morning and we caught the tail end of it as some of the last people were climbing fences to get to the finish line! :)
We are going to Bodie Lighthouse today, but sadly mom and Elijah won't be coming with us :( Elijah still  feels bad so she is going to stay back at the room with him.


12:00 PM
Me and dad just got back to the room! We had a lot of fun :)

Something I didn't know, at some point the name of the Lighthouse changed from "Body's" to "Bodie". Nobody knows when or why.



Wow I'm high up...


Me and dad :)
 Now me and mom are going to lunch and do some shopping while dad stays with Elijah.

1:00 PM
We just finished... well I wouldn't say it was lunch exactly, we had ice cream from Dairy Queen ;) I had another S'mores Blizzard, which was just as good as the first time! Now we are going shopping at Tangers Outlets in Kill Devil Hills

5:00 PM
We just got back to the room and I racked up at Tangers!  I got clothes from Aeropoatale and a tank-top from Gap and some other stuff :) Slowly running out of money..... ;) Elijah has slept most of the day, so now we are all on our way out to eat

7:00 PM
We ended up eating at Outback, where I had a Cheeseburger and fries. I liked my lunch of ice cream from Dairy Queen better ;) After Elijah got some caffeine he feels way better so now we are going to play putt-putt!

9:00 PM
I hit a hole in one again! I am very proud ;) we played at a place called Mutiny Bay, it was pirates! :) 

I like Pirates :) I also got an adorable little turtle stuffed animal, that is wearing a pirate hat ;)

10:30 PM
We found a huuuuuge Kitty Hawk kites store! We stayed pretty much until it closed, and we didn't finish so we will have to go back tomorrow :)

1:00 AM
Well since my little brother slept aaaaall day, he wasn't to keen on the idea of sleeping tonight ;) He feels so much better and we are all very happy about it! He is hyper as all get out, and we aren't exactly sure what to do about it! We have been sitting here watching Duck Dynasty for the past few hours
 but I  think I am about ready to go to bed. Goodnight everyone!

Last Minute Present: Oven Mitt

This is a super easy (and cheap) present that someone who loves baking or cooking would adore!  I received this as a gift last year and I was so excited!  To top it all off, this present couldn't get any easier, and it could be made for under $10 but is very versatile and can be made as elaborate or simple as you want!   So the basics, you are going to need an oven mitt to put the whole present in, and then a few tools to solidify the cooking theme.  I know for a fact the mitt, as well as the tools below, came from Walmart and can be snagged super cheap. Then you need to fill it with candy and food!  In mine she added chocolate chip cookie mix, hot chocolate mix, and candy canes.  Super simple right?  And definitely something you could run to Walmart right now and put together.  Like I said before, there are many variations you could do with this present!  My mom has a wood burning tool and can burn designs into wooden...

Winter As a College Student

Let me just tell you, there isn't a thing in the world fun about a dorm room in the winter!  On the happen chance that yours is as old as mine (pre-1960s, thank you very much) you probably have radiators too, which personally, I have very little control over.  Even on the off setting they exude so much heat that the room is stifling!  And then you open the window and snow starts blowing in... Yay Appalachian Mountains! Let's just all agree that is quite a process.  So what is one to do to combat these cold (and getting colder!) temperatures? First, I've got two B's for you (mostly because I couldn't come up with a third...)  Blankets and Bedwarmers! Let's face it, dorm rooms are tiny and your bed is the focus of the majority of decor, as well as where you will be spending a large portion of your time (yay Netflix binges!) so you need to make sure it is super cozy! Personally, I have my sheets and comforter that I sleep under every night.  ...

Apartment Tour + Fall Decor!

It's coming a bit late, because by this point I have Christmas decor up, but why not?  It isn't December yet, and I loved my fall decor and wanted to show it off! Entrance and "Dining Room" We did our best to section off the living room/dining room/kitchen area so it had a house feel that trashy college apartment.  We also tried to add all the things we could to make it feel more bright and homey since only one piece of furniture in here is actually ours!  The rest was provided for us. So for the dining are my roommate who replaced her desk chair with a comfy version brought out her chair so we could have 5 seats.  We then added cute placemats which stay out year round For fall decor I added the glittery leaf centerpiece and a few candles, as well as the wine bottles! I painted these, and though they aren't my best I still liked them!  I used twine on the top, stickers from Target around the sides, and painters tape to make the letters, and th...
