Billings Family Photos | Oak Island, NC

Growing up in North Carolina, every summer my big extended family spent a week at the beach. We either rented a huge house for all of us, or multiple condos all next to each other. It was a blast and I’m pretty sure my siblings, cousins, and I took over that beach when we were there! My husband also spent a lot of time at the beach growing up, and this year his sister spearheaded bringing back the beach week! My sister-in-law’s family lives in Colorado and don’t make it to the beach much, so it was the perfect excuse for a North Carolina beach trip. It was so fun to see how excited my nephews were to be there! They definitely have a love for sand and water, and we had a blast playing all week.

When the beach trip began materializing, my sister-in-law expressed her interest in some beach family photos, and we made it happen! The boys were such troopers the whole time, though I think they were just happy to have another excuse to play at the beach. ;)
