Dear Grandkids,
1987.
That was the year that our family starting spending a week together at Sunset Beach, NC. There have only been a few years that we have missed this annual tradition. It started with Nona’s parents and their kids and grandkids. So your parents have lots of memories at Sunset with their cousins and aunts and uncles and grandparents. Just to name a few that you can ask them about sometime:
- Uncle John games
- Lindsay’s poop story
- Scott’s trip to the ER
- Walks to Jellyfish Bay
- Sardines
- Rock Candy
- Calabash Seafood
- Putt Putt
- Fun on the sand and surf
- Finding pencil shells
- Pushing Tucker off his bike
- Aunt Jeanne freaking out
- Family meals
- Screened in porch talks
- Tucker’s poop story (Outer Banks not Sunset)
We are keeping the tradition alive and hope that in 15 years you will have lots of shared memories of your own that you look back on and laugh together about. The pictures below were taken 25 years apart – 1994 and 2019. A lot has changed in 25 years – but we cherish the memories and find great joy in our love for one another and the times we get to spend together.
Never forget that you are very loved!
