We are home safely from our vacation to Virginia. We had a wonderful time visiting with our dear friends, the Dysons. We have vacationed with them for six of the last seven years - Lizzie's birth took the place of vacation in 2005! It is always a good time when we are together!
Here are just a few pictures and highlights of our trip.
Brian tries to unwind after a 13 hour car trip with a grumpy three year old by playing GuitarHero.
We visited a great Italian restaurant. The food was incredible and Elizabeth ate more than her share. While waiting on dessert the kids learned how to balance spoons on their noses! Thank you, Jeff!!
On Tuesday, we all headed to Busch Gardens.
Zach and T take time for a quick picture break!
The first ride of the day was a water ride. Brian and the boys are in the front row! They loved it so much we had to ride it twice! Elizabeth liked waiting at the bottom and getting splashed by the water!
Then it was off to the bumper cars. Lizzie couldn't do anything but go in circles, but she thought that was great! She and Jake rode them over and over while waiting on the big kids to get done!
Zach and T can't wait to bump into Brian!!
Zach rode "Apollo's Chariot" three times! It was a wild roller coaster, but he loved it. Here is a picture of him and Brian after their second time around!
Jacob rode his first "big boy" roller coaster too! I couldn't get a picture of him in it because you could barely see his head poking out! He loved the Big Bad Wolf!!
On Thursday, we headed to a water park. The boys and T loved all the water slides. Thanks, Polly, for taking them on all of the slides! Lizzie and I hung out in the children's section all day! She is definitely not the daredevil that her brothers are!
Add to that. . .dinners out, putt-putt, worshiping together, movie night, shopping, video games and general hanging out! We had a GREAT time.
There was one minor bump in the road, however. On the way home from Busch Gardens, Brian rear-ended our friends in a work zone. So, we sat there for a while waiting on the Virginia State Police. No one was hurt, just scared. We drove a rental car home, and Brian will travel out in early August to pick up our van!
We came home praising God for great friends, an awesome time, and His physical protection during the accident!
