WTG Madi!!! Keepin' them tocks in shape? Our servants used to go to The Outer Banks effury year! They stay in Waves. Mom and Dad has been to the Wright Brothers Memorial, and mom almost hand a heartattack walking up ALL of those stairs at The Hatteras Lighthouse! Then even stumbled upon the State Aquarium while they were down there. They also make sure that effurytime they go, they try some weird food they neffur had before. So far, they had frog legs and kangaroo. That, mom says, tasted like steak. But they LOVE to go to Dirty Dick's crabshack. I mean really, with a name like that, how can you NOT go there?!? Have a happy day!
ReplyDeleteThat is so interesting to know! And I love the fact that Madi rides the exercize bike. Guess she has to keep her diva figure.
ReplyDeleteAlways good to learn new stuff. And Madi may be the only one in NC, but the girls here (Roxy, sometimes Callie, but especially Sassy) are always in The Mommy's recumbent bike seat, ready to go! MOL

Jack like the exercise bicycle too - but he only chews on the bottom!
