VA Beach

We had so much fun on our recent trip to Virginia Beach, VA.  As you will see in the pictures, we took advantage of the beach for the short amount of time we were there.  We were the first ones out on the beach playing. 

Lils became very good at timing the wave just right, as it washed up on shore, by jumping over and splashing down in the water.  Keeks had a blast inching close to the departing wave as it swept out to sea and then turning and running all the while screaming as a new wave came crashing back to the beach.  Z slept the majority of the time in his car seat which allowed us time to bump the volleyball. 

We met a family just after breakfast the first day who hung out with us on the beach.  They had two boys who loved playing with our girls.  The kids even wrote notes to our girls saying how sad they were to see them go home.  On our way out the door, the little boy gave Keeks a football. 

Wish we could have stayed longer and look forward to going back someday!  Enjoy the pictures.


Our friends brought a kite

I stood close by so the kids didn't get too crazy

Water was freezing, she didn't care

How does that not hurt the knees?

Run away from the wave!

Anything I built, the girls smashed. I gave up quickly
