We have just arrived home for a long week on vacation to Virginia. We traveled with Steve's parents the whole way and met up with Dan and Andrea and stayed at a resort there. We were there for cousin Brandon's wedding last Saturday. It was a more "relaxing" trip because we had Aubrey; which meant we made time for naps, but it was still a lot of work to travel with a 15 month old, but we all survived and had a good time. Here are some (ok maybe a lot) of highlights from the trip!
sitting in Newark airport after Aubrey's first flight - she did great!
watching the airplanes during our layover
hanging out at Uncle Mark and Aunt Lori's house in Williamsburg, VA
with Catrina, Daddy, and Derek
Aubrey's bed for the week -
unfortunately she did not sleep very well in it in the same room as us
hanging out at the Kaisands
enjoying the pools at the resort
(Aubrey didn't like it the first day but learned to love it after that)
I just had to take a pic of her LONG POINT on top of her head :)
the condo we stayed at for the week - King's Creek Plantation
checking out Williamsburg Pottery
rehearsal supper at the Kaisands
we went mini-golfing at Pirate's Cove
striking a pose ;)
walking with Grandma's help
we are in the stocks...apparently dying :)

Brandon & Elissa's Wedding
she walked down a LONG set of stairs with her dad
GORGEOUS!
the ceremony outside along the James River
photo op at the wedding site
"so big!"
the house where they got married outside of- HUGE
kinda blurry...
but a great shot of Aubrey dancing at the reception
with Aunt Cindy, Camille and Catrina
Aubrey would scoot her way out to the dance floor and had a riot!
ready to go swimming again after a quick milk break
first time she really enjoyed the pools!
no turning back...she loved it!
swimming with Daddy
swimming with Mommy
the first pool that Aubrey swam in - at the resort
Aubrey had a great time being brave with Grandpa.
All he had to do was place her at the top
and she would scoot her way down - so fun!
lots of cards were played at the resort
at the top of the stairs - "I'm in jail, Mommy!"
Go Karts Plus - hanging out with Mommy
they got SOAKED from the bumper boats
cheering them all on at the Go Karts
lots of time in the car, makes us sleepy
AUBREY'S FIRST STEPS
~15 MONTHS OLD~
Unfortunately Mommy was in the shower
when it first happened but
Aubrey did take many more steps this trip to prove it wasn't a fluke!
we all checked out Colonial Williamsburg for the morning
:)
Grandpa got Aubrey a "Margaret" doll from Colonial Williamsburg
Aubrey made a new friend - Aunt Cindy
hanging out with Uncle Mark
Derek and his ferret - yikes!
Steve was making all these girls laugh - too cute!
one last look at the James River before we go
