Outer Banks 2013: Day 4, Monday June 10th

8:50 AM

Goodmorning Beach Bunnies!
My little brother got up just as early this morning, but I am learning to ignore him ;) I had a Blueberry muffin with Cream Cheese again this morning, we are going to have to make another Food Lion run to get some more of these! They are great! :) My Sunburn is a little better today, the lower half of my legs look normal, but the upper half still look bright red -_-
Today are plans are pretty much the same as yesterday, we are spending the day down at the beach again! :)


1:30 PM
We just came in for lunch :) I had a sandwich, carrots, and Ice Cream! Have you ever had Ben and Jerry's Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream before?
 It is sooooooo good! :) 
I think we are going back down to the beach for a while, and then over to the pool! :) 
Ttyl!!


4:30 PM
We briefly went back down to the beach... long enough to descover our blanket and chairs had been covered over in sand. It has been a really nice day, but it is so windy! We did most of the same things on the bra h today that we did yesterday. Except today when we caught sand fleas (and the occasional fish) we put them in a bucket to see how many we could get! :)
 Don't worry, we let them go... eventually ;) 
After packing up our sand encrusted beach things, we went and spent a few hours at the pool. My little brother would rather be at the pool than anywhere, so he loved it :)

 I mostly just floated around on pool noodles :)
We just got back to the room, so I am going to get in the shower!

5:45 PM
We all showered and got ready in record time! ;) We are now on our way to a shopping center in Atlantic Beach :)

7:30 PM
Just left the shopping center! A lot of the shops closed at 6, so there wasn't much open. But I did get to go to the bookstore! Which I was very happy about :) 
I got 2 new books...
which makes five total so far for this vacation!
 If you can't tell, I like to read ;) My mom got us some new diving rings/balls sir the pool, and some goggles too! I am truly still a kid at heart :) Now we are on our way to the Channel Marker for dinner!

8:30 PM
Just finished eating and that has been the best meal yet by FAR! I had Crab Spinach Dip.
Isn't it pretty! :)
 I know, I know, I had that last night too... but I was craving it and last night just didn't do it for me ;)



9:00 PM
Decided to stop off at a Wings Beach store on the way home. I got a few of the cute little creaseless hair ties :) I am on the search for some white bathing suit bottoms, and I was sure that they of all places would have some! But sadly, no such luck. The search continues...

12:30 PM
Today I made it to chapter 12 in a book that I just started this morning, which is about halfway through! I'm glad I bought lots of new reading material! :) It has been a really good day overall :)
Boy do Sunburns hurt worse at night.... But we are spending the day off the beach tomorrow, so that should help some :) That also means tomorrow will be more interesting to you all! :) Hope you come back to spend day 4 of our vacation with me! Love you all, goodnight! <3

My Petal Club

A new box!  And a PERIOD subscription box at that!  I love finding new boxes to try out, especially when they are this affordable!  This box is normally $6.99 per month, but if you use the discount code "SUMMER" on mypetalclub.com , this box will be only $3.50!  And let's be honest, one box of pads/tampons is usually more expensive than that, so why not give it a try?? So this box primarily consists of just the period products with very few extras.  This isn't one of the present, feel-good kind of boxes, it just provides you with the necessary products to get through the month, at an affordable price. Step One The first thing you do on their website is choose the combination of products you will need.  Be warned, you aren't given as much of a selection if you order through Cratejoy like I did.  It worked totally fine and I still got the products I needed, but I like choice!  So I suggest going straight through their website....

Be Mine... Kissable Lip Routine

I thought this was a kind of unique post, but also a great way to kick off Beach Babe's Be Maine Valentine's Day Series! I mean, you can't have a Valentines Day without soft kissable lips! Even if you don't have a Valentine this year, you don't want to be caught by surprise! ;) First thing i do (and the very first thing you all should do!) is start out by exfoliating your lips! Before I use a Lip Scrub, I run warm water over a washcloth, wring it out, and rub my lips with this. Next I take a lip scrub (if you would like to know what I use check out this link here, but any kind you prefer will work). I use the washcloth on my lips first so that they will be more open to absorb the benefits of the Scrub. Lastly, I apply some of the lip scrub to a clean toothbrush and use this on my lips. Grab the washcloth once again and wipe the scrub and crystals away! :) The next thing you should do in your kissable lips routine, is apply a lip balm. My favorites are the eos...

Natural Hair Highlightes

I am in love with the way that highlights look on your hair, but I'm not so crazy about how much they cost. I found that these will lighten your hair and give you a summertime look for not even half the price. Just apply on your hair before laying in the sun or going out for a day at the beach and come home looking like a blond and bronzed beach goddess! Lemon This is by far the best known of the natural hair highlighters. Mix 1/4 cup of fresh squeezed lemon juice and 3/4 cup of water in spray bottle. Spray the lemon water onto your hair until damp, do not soak your scalp or spray on skin, it could cause blistering. Leave the mixture on your hair for 2 hours, and spend at least 30 minutes of that time in the sun. Condition your hair before and after you use the lemon juice because it can dry your hair.   Olive Oil You may know that olive oil is a wonderful hair conditioner but many people don't realize it can be used as a natural hair lightener too.
