OBX, Here We Come!!!

  Gammy hosted a very special "Christmas in July" this evening to surprise us all with flip-flops and matching Outer Banks t-shirts to signify the renewal of the Rocchi Outer Banks tradition starting up again in 2018!  The Outer Banks is very special to the Rocchi family as they vacationed there every summer of Mike's childhood.  It was an extended Rocchi family vacation full of grandparents, aunt, uncles, and cousins that hold very special memories for them.  Mike and I were married in the Outer Banks in 2008 and enjoyed our 1-year anniversary down there as well.  We are ALL super excited to be there in 2018 to commemorate our 10-year anniversary, Elizabeth and Jay's 5-year anniversary, and Gammy's somethingth birthday.  Let the planning begin!!!

Sporting our "Carolina Blue" shirts -- thanks, Gammy!

Christmas in July -- she even had Christmas music playing!

It was a struggle to coordinate the selfie....can't wait to see what kinds of adventures we get into planning during the next year!

These two....gonna be fun!

"I don't know what OBX is but everyone seems really excited!!!"
