For years I heard how OBX was amazing and so much more incredible than the Jersey shore. Last year I finally saw what everyone was talking about. I was invited to go with my boyfriend's family, which included grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. It was seriously the best week of our lives. Not only did we get to catch up but we had so much fun down there. We went through Outer Beaches and we had no problems what so ever! We stayed in Frisco and every night at 9 a guy would play his bagpipe and we would listen to him while either relaxing in the hot tub or cooking marshmallows on the beach. During the day we would relax on the beach and fish, then cook the fish right there and make our own sushi. I am the worst eater and for 8 months all I heard was how I had to have an oyster at Pop's Bar and I think my video on YouTube says enough! Now the best part of our vacation happened on Thursday. We went out to eat and then went and took a family photo on the beach. Later that night my boyfriend, his uncle, and I went out on the beach. A few nights ago his uncle was taking silhouette pictures of everyone and my boyfriend said ours was messed up and we had to redo it. Right after we redid our picture he got down on one knee and proposed! It was so amazing and to do it right there on the beach under the stars was so beautiful and his uncle was right there to capture it all! It was the best moment of my life! Thank you Outer Beaches for a wonderful week and a lifetime of memories!
