The condo was beautiful! Words cannot describe it 100%. We had lots of room to move about without feeling like we were stepping on everyones toes. Gg and Papa had a great time relaxing...Gg found a comfy red chair to sit back and relax in as she could look out over Back Bay. And Grandma had a great time with her grandsons! We walked on the beach, played in the park, visited with family, and checked out some of the area attractions!
On Thursday we spent most of our day getting settled in. Grandma, Brewer and I went grocery shopping while Daddy and Cooper found a park near by and played in the sand. Cooper got hit by a wave on the first trip out to the beach and changed his clothes three times that day. The beach was his favorite place to be!
On Friday, we went for a buggy ride down on the boardwalk. In our buggy we had: Brewer, Cooper, Daddy, Mommy, Grandma, and Rebecca. On the other bike, we had: Auntie Tina, Auntie Debbie, Uncle Dennis, and Steven. We cruised around for a couple of hours before we went back to the condo to rest up for Amber and Kevin's wedding.
Brewer and I touched the cold water of the Atlantic Ocean for the first time together! It was cold, but it also felt refreshing after walking in the warm sand. Brewer's favorite pasttime was chasing after the seagulls that landed on the beach...he probably would have done that all day if we let him!
On Saturday, we had a relaxing day inside. The weather was overcast and misting for the majority of the day. Our rental van was out of commission too:( Cooper, Steven, Rebecca, and Brewer had fun though playing inside and watching movies in the Movie Room.
On Sunday we went over to Sara's for Easter dinner. It was a nice visit and we were able to meet all of her turtles and the loud bird. In the afternoon, it was back to the beach to build sandcastles, dig holes, catch the waves, and chase the birds!
On Monday, Grandma, Daddy, Mommy, Cooper and Brewer went to the Aquarium and Marine Science Center. Brewer was in awe of all of the fish, Cooper was intrigued with the sharks and Daddy was having a blast! And Grandma and I enjoyed all of their reactions! Afterwards, we went out for lunch and we enjoyed some seafood. Later in the evening we went out with Auntie Lisa and family for more seafood...we just could not get enough!!
On Tuesday, Gg, Papa, and Grandma left to go back home:( We took the boys to the Virgina Zoo. It was a very nice zoo but it was hotter than hot so we went back to the beach. Unfortunately, Brewer finally had enough of being confined to a stroller, carseat, or high chair that we were unable to join Auntie Lisa and Uncle John for dinner on our last night:(
On Wednesday we went to the Nauticus and USS Wisconsin before our plane took off. This was an amazing museum and one we hope to return to someday. Daddy and Cooper had a great adventure climbing up on the USS Wisconsin while Brewer and I walked around on the deck.
We had a great time in Virginia Beach and were sad that we had to leave. Our time there was magical and one that we won't forget for a long time!
