2011 Family Vacation - Sandbridge, Virginia Beach

We had a great time on our summer vacation at Sandbridge, Virginia Beach with Griff and Barb, Justin and the Godfrey’s. The house was AWESOME!


We spent many hours chilling inside of the house and also on the enormous back deck where we enjoyed the beautiful beachfront view.  Sadly, Jay spent the first 4 days of the vacation in bed as he developed strep throat on the first night of vacation.  We went to a local urgent care center 2 times before getting the proper medicine to help him get better.  He did come out and socialize a few times the first 4 days, but by Thursday, he felt better and was ready for his vacation to begin.
We also spent many hours on the beach while the children played with the sand.
One day, Jay caught Griff dancing on the beach...not a pretty sight!


Another day, we made a Hershey Kiss sand castle with the children.
Once built, we tour down the sand castle and then buried Jay in the sand, turning him into a butterfly.
Chase wanted to be like daddy and also be buried in the sand. He did not like it very much.

Several of the days, Barb and Griff went into the ocean to swim or boogie board.
Jay is not very fond of all the animals hidden in the ocean, so we played with Chase by the shore and just got a little wet.

We spent our time swimming in the outside pool...
and in heated indoor pool. Chase became quite a good swimmer on this vacation.

On Thursday, Griff, Scott, Braydon, Jay and Chase went to the Military Aviation Museum to see the old war planes and equipment.


Towards the end of the tour, Chase got pretty bored and occupied his time by walking back and forth on an extension cord.
On Friday, Justin left the vacation one day early. We were sad to see him go as we knew that our vacation was also coming to an end very soon.
Our vacation ended on Saturday as we packed up the car and headed out the door for the 7 hour drive home back to Pennsylvania.
Thanks Barb and Griff for another AWESOME vacation!
