After the guys finished finals this spring, seven of Fuqua's LDS families packed up and headed to Hatteras for a week at the beach. We rented an awesome beachfront house at the end of Hatteras Island (right across from the Ocracoke ferry). Luckily, the weather was gorgeous, so we spent all our time playing in the sand, bodyboarding in the ocean, and laying next to the freezing cold pool at the house (while the kids played in the hot tub). We enjoyed a ton of good food as each family took a night to provide a homecooked meal. And after the kids went to bed, we were able to enjoy playing games, sitting around talking, and watching hilarious YouTube videos. It was a great final farewell to a lot of our closest friends before we all took off for new jobs and internships.

That sounds like so much fun! I wish we had done something like that with all our MBA friends. I love those last four pictures of your family and esp. the last one of Hannah. They are absolutely beautiful!
What a blast! What a great way to have fun with dear friends before saying farewell. I love the pics of your family. We can't wait to see you all in just a few weeks.
It sounds like fun! It makes me wish even more that we could have gone with you all.
You do make a pretty beautiful daughter! And no toddler is cooperative for pictures (at least not mine) so I'm impressed you got such a good one!
What a fun trip! The picture of your family on the beach is beautiful! What a gorgeous bunch :).
