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

Mail Time: TheECPlannerKitLady Sticker Haul

So apparently Halloween was mail day for me!  I checked my mailbox that morning after class and found a few fun things, and then later I got a notification that a package had been delivered, so why not check again?  I found my package and another letter!  It hadn't been such a great weekend, so finding all of the fun things waiting for me on Monday perked me right up! I got three cards, one from my mom, my mom's coworker, and my grandmother!  I thought it was fun that all three had puppies. My mother also sent me a huge box of Halloween goodies!  Candy, tattoos, donuts, fake bugs, all kinds of fun stuff! But now on to the true meat of this post, I recently placed two orders with  TheECPlannerKitLady  on Etsy!  I know two is a bit excessive, but first she had a sale, and then she offered a discounted grab bag, both just for members of her Facebook group !  Planner stickers can be very expensive, so I jump at opportunities to...

Empties Part 1: Hair and Body Products

Please don't judge the amount of products I have here! This is probably collective from the past 6 months of more, and I just did a clean out of some old products.  To make things easier I will underline the products I have repurchased or would consider buying again in the future. Hair Products These are all of the mousses I've used recently! I use a lot of mousse...  And also somehow a hairspray snuck it's way in there Got2B Kinky - Can't say I'd buy this again... I generally buy whatever is on sale because I like to try new things, but this was a bad choice.  It didn't have a good hold, and had a very different smell that I wasn't crazy over.  Not repurchasing. Herbal Essences Curl Booster - This one I liked a lot better.  The hold wasn't steller, but my hair was always very soft when I used it.  I haven't repurchased this currently, but I wouldn't be opposed to it. Aussie Instant Freeze Hairspray - This literally took me FO...

Sunburn Relief

Even when you wear sunscreen, sometimes the inevitable happens and you get the dreaded sunburn... So what should you do? I have a few suggestions of the best way to be as comfortable as possible while you recover! 1.) Pain Reliever First things first, as soon as you discover your sunburn head to the medicine cabinet and take an over-the-counter pain reliever such as Ibuprofen or Advil. These are anti-inflammatory medications which will help to reduce swelling and pressure from the sunburn, which will relive  some of the pain. 2.) Hydrate The second most helpful thing you can possibly do is drink water! The sun has sucked all of the moisture from your skin, and it is literally  begging for you to replenish it. Try to drink just water, since it is better for you and more hydrating than juice or sodas. 3.) Take a Bath Try to limit yourself to no more that 30 minutes, but that thirty minutes can do wonders for your...
