Sandbridge Vacation

Sandbridge Vacation

Sept 14-22 2012

Sandbridge Virginia, near Virginia Beach

Our first family vacation and the kids' first trip to the beach. Beck loved rolling in the sand, wading in the waves, and the many playgrounds. Liv surprisingly loved the beach. She was not weirded out by the sand at all. 

We went with the Shockleys. We left at 5 pm. Stopped halfway to sleep in a hotel. Drove the rest of the way the next morning and arrived about 2pm. On our way home we left at 7am and drove straight through. We stopped twice at playgrounds and stopped for meals. The kids did wonderful in the car. 

Jess and I made almost all of our food before we left and packed it in coolers. We mostly just heated stuff up for meals. It was awesome to not have to cook all week!

Aquarium... this was the first and only animal he was interested in

He liked all the "hands-on" stuff way more!

Heaven!

He LOVED the water. LOVED it.

The kids loved the many beach playgrounds

On our way home we stopped at a splash park to run off energy

On the way home, this was the closest thing we could find to a playground...
