This week has been nothing short of a whirlwind. Last Saturday, Chris, Cynthia and I headed off to Herndon, VA for a wedding. It was an absolutely gorgeous wedding and I will try to post a few pictures in the next day or so.
Then on Sunday, Chris and I attended and photographed a reception for my good friend Courtney and her new husband James. Her parents threw a reception for them at Shoemaker's restaurant which was wonderful. The food there is amazing. One of these days Chris and I will visit there for dinner but from what I hear it is pretty pricey.
Sunday afternoon, we were all off to Williamsburg for a short vacation. Besides the heat, it was a fun trip. We visited Busch Gardens every day and Chris rode the Griffon five times. There were no lines to speak of, possibly due to the 105 degree weather. Luckily the kids, including Chris, were able to ride just about everything in the park. Even Peyton managed to stretch her neck enough to be able to ride the swings. They didn't let her ride them the first day because she was too short. Needless to say, we let her wear her platform flip flops the next day which barely put her to the height line. Her Nana told her to stretch her neck. Peyton took that to mean, stand on your tippy toes. All in all it was a fun vacation. We were fortunate to meet the many personalities of Peyton. While on vacation she transformed into her different personalities which she named, Carole, Cynthia and Cybil! You have to be around her to understand. She even proceeded to impress her Nana with her shopping abilities. We are definitely going to have our hands full when she becomes a teenager. God help us! Cameron invited his best friend Andrew to join us on our trip. The boys had a great time running around the park and enjoying the rides. I, however, learned that at my age the roller coasters which I loved in my 20's do not like me now that I am 30 something. Those days of riding the coaters back to back are GONE!
Here are a few pictures from our trip.

I have to give Chris credit for this picture. He took this from the ferry as we were riding back from Surry. He is so proud of his talents.

Cameron and Andrew on one of those rides that I can no longer tolerate! :0)

I LOVE Chris's picture. It's obvious that her taught you everything you know!! We need to get the boys together next week when we get back in town. Talk later.
