Outer Banks 2013: Day 6, Wednesday June 12th

9:15 AM
Goodmorning everyone :) I woke up surprisingly early for someone who stayed up until 1 in the morning! ;) Once again, I had a Blueberry Cream cheese muffin for breakfast... those things are amazing! Today we are just spending the day down at the beach again :)


2:45 PM
Just came in for lunch! Today is the perfect day to be down at the beach! It is warm and not windy, just perfect :) I told you all earlier this week about the German Soldiers at our hotel, because they came to train at a military camp. We have 3 camps around us and helicopters and other huge flying things are going over constantly! They are flying so low that you can see the people inside of them! It is cool and kind of scary at the same time! :)


8:30 PM
We decided to spend as long as we could down on the beach today since we only have one other day left :(
We just came in from the pool, where I rediscovered my love for swimming underwater! I forgot how much fun it was! I stopped a few years back because I didn't like wearing the big goggles, but last night I decided that I didn't care anymore and just wanted to swim :)

At the beach this morning we decided we wanted to dig a hole, which we did as a family effort :)
After we dug the hole we sat and made drip castles for a while.
When we got board with that we started playing Frisbee  which we did for over an hour! After that we just played in the water for a while




My little brother wrote "Elijah is here" in the sad and drew and arrow to himself

So dad came over to my drawing where I had wrote "Bethany" and added "Is gone" -_-
Later that evening before we came back to the pool we revisited our hole and built a sandcastle around it, which was pretty epic if I do say so myself!


Dad just cam back to the room with Dairy Queens for supper, ttyl :)


11:00 PM
We just finished watching Dispicable Me while eating Dairy Queen! Despicable Me is one of our favorite movies,band we can not wait until the second one comes out! We mostly just like it because of the Minions, which are adorably hilarious :) 

This time from Dairy Queen I had a Bacon Cheese Burger and fries, this time instead of S'mores Ice Cream I had Oreo Cheesequake. It wasn't as good as the s'mores, but it was still pretty darn amazing! :)

I finished another book today, and made it a few chapters in to the third book for my vacation :) I didn't really get many new sunburns, just a couple of spots, and the burn on the backs of my legs are almost better!
Well goodnight guys, this is the earliest I have went to bed this week! :)

DIY Beach Spray

 I always wanted the Beach Spray for your hair that gives you the just came off of the beach wavy look, but there so dang expensive! So this is a recipe you can use to make your own!  Things You'll Need Plastic spray bottle 1 tsp. sea salt 8 oz. water 1/2 - 1 tsp. coconut oil, olive oil or light conditioner Lemon Juice 3 drops essential oil (optional) Instructions Pour water into the plastic spray bottle. Add sea salt, NOT table salt. The more salt you add, the more "crunchy," textured and beach like your hair will feel. Add moisturizer to combat the drying factor of the salt. Use coconut oil, olive oil or light conditioner. Avoid adding more than a teaspoon because it can weigh down your hair. Add a few drops of lemon juice to your mixture if you plan on being out in the sun at all. Cute hair and highlights, Score! :) Add essential oil for fragrance and additional benefits. Choose your favorit...

Outer Banks 2013: Day 5, Tuesday June 11th

9:00 AM Just woke up :) I am learning to sleep straight through my brother waking up at ungodly times ;) We made a run to Food Lion again last night to get some more of the Blueberry Cream Cheese muffins for Breakfast, so I had one of those. I think I am in love! They are just amazing :) The more I look the more places I find on me that are sunburned! We decided to spend the day off of the beach today, so maybe it will feel better by tomorrow :) 10:10 AM I know I don't usually do favorites posts or anything, so can I add a small one into here? It is the L'oreal Magic Skin BB Cream.  I had never really fallen into the BB Cream craze because I have oily skin and it just sounded like a tinted moisturizer. My mom bought this one and I just decided to try it, I love it! It has a very matte finish, so it is perfect for me :) My only issue with it is that my mom got the medium shade and I think it might be a little dark/orange-y on me. But either way, it is a great pr...

Fragrant Jewels: Shipment One

So I decided to try a new Subscription Box... Remember when that was all I did??  I'm sure most of you have heard of the company Fragrant Jewels.  They create candles, bath bombs, and other fun products, all with rings hidden inside! The first box I received was a present for a friend, and I liked hers so much I decided to try it out as well!  I really wanted a candle though, and sadly this box didn't contain one.  But regardless, this is the Sweet Retreat collection.  The scent is described as "Cool Marine Breeze, Fresh Lavender, and Soothing Chamomile."  It is a bit to floral and fragrant to be especially soothing, but it is very nice and bright for spring. The first item in the box were mini bath bombs.  I actually prefer this size of bath bombs to the big ones!  I was, however, afraid that since they were mini that this product wouldn't come with a ring, which kind of defeats the purpose of Fragrant "Jewels" doesn't it?  But no...
