Escape from Sandy- Part #1

Well, it's a little late to talk about the beautiful October sunrises now that it's November, but here's one pic from our deck.  Our sunrises have disappeared for now and the rain has returned but that's ok because we still live in a beautiful place.


Other October happenings included a trip to Virginia to visit Scott's mother and step-father and attend his 20th (yes, 20th!!) college reunion at William and Mary.  Our first stop was Nana and Grandad's house.  Matthew had lots of fun taking boat rides, riding in the golf cart and just playing around.  He insisted on wearing his pirate costume on the boat and he transformed into Captain Brickbeard, bombing (with pine cones) everything in sight.  It was very humorous.


Argh Matey!!

Nana and Jacob

Matthew and Nana also had some Nerf gun shoot outs.  I love the look on Matthew's face in this pic.  It's like he's saying "Ha, ha, ha gotcha".



Like my new hair do??

We also spent one night at Great Wolf Lodge in Willliamsburg.  We have one in WA and Matthew loves this place!  He would spend the whole day from morning to night playing in the water park if he could.  We even got Jacob to spend a little time in the kiddie pool.


Next up was Colonial Williamsburg.  Matthew had a lot of fun learning about life in colonial times.  I think that his favorite part was learning about muskets.  He's such a boy.   


Colonial baby in a Bjorn :)



A new way to do time out??

And Jacob too!

Looks like a fun time and a reminder - Scott is getting so old! (Next year will be my 40th anniversary!) You were so fortunate to escape Sandy . . . by a hair's breath! Love the photos - thank you!
