The worst family vacation with the best family

This year our annual family vacation was a little challenging.  I think that we are al feeling pretty lucky to have gotten out of Wilmington, North Carolina alive.  The night that we arrived poor Mayson Elizabeth came down with a double ear infection and ran a high fever for several days.  My poor angel couldn't sleep, eat or do anything but cry.  Finally the medicine kicked in and she began feeling better just in time for me to get an abscess on my sinus cavity that caused one whole side of my face to swell and horrible pain.  After that Lily got urinary tract infection and just to throw a little spice into our lives my dad got into an accident.  

While you will not see any pictures of me (think big lopsided face) you will see a few pictures that I managed to capture between visits Urgent Care.  Mom, Dad, John, Tiffany, Will, Finn, Lily and Mayson Elizabeth their was no better group of people to have spent a miserable week with.  I love you all.

                       

                            Pop and Mayson Elizabeth really enjoyed the fireworks over the River!

Mimi and Pop

                                             The always lovely Lily is a kite flying expert

                                            Finn on the other hand like running much better

                         Mimi and Finn were able to have several "portant" discussions regarding super hero's

          

        My girl was such a little trooper she loved the beach and all the extra attention the week provided

                   It was wonderful spending time with everyone especially my handsome husband

John Grimes State Farm

John's dream of being a State Farm Agent is becoming more of a reality every day.  We are pleased to announce that we have found a building here in Roanoke Rapids, NC that will house John Grimes State Farm and that we begin construction later in the month.  

Here is a look at the before and I will make sure to post pictures of the after as well.

Wish us luck on the latest exciting adventure for the Grimes Family!
