Katie's Day!!

It's my sister's birthday today! The big 23!!

So we started the day opening presents!! She got the Columbia jacket she wanted and some other great stuff!!

Then we headed to Southport, North Carolina! We used to go when we were little, but hadn't been in a long time! My Mom thought it would be a fun place to go for Kate's birthday!

We rode the ferry from Fort Fisher. It was an absolutely beautiful day!!

I love that you can ride your car right onto the ferry!

Family Shot!

Lunch:

This was a really cool restaurant in Southport that we ate at after we got off the ferry. You walk in, they let you get your drinks, they take something from you like your sunglasses to save your table, and then you go in a line and order off the menu. Then you go sit down and they bring your food to you. It was a little chaotic, but well worth the food, and the view. ( I got the lunch special, which was crab cake and seasoned shrimp :)

Then for dessert, we went to Port City Java for Mocha Shakes! This, NOT Starbucks, is the place to get coffee in Wilmington and surrounding areas! I LOVE Mocha Shakes!

Then we headed to the old county jail! It was really cool inside!

It was a great day! And it's still not done! Going to get ready for dinner! We are headed to Katie's favorite french restaurant Brasserie du Soleil!
