Our Summer Adventures

We started our Summer with a family trip to Williamsburg. We stayed for a week in a condo (which was bigger than the apartment we live in) and had the best time just hanging out and spending time together...

A day in Yorktown...




Colonial Williamsburg. I could spend hours in their gardens...

And of course there was Busch Gardens!



Duckpin Bowling...

Saying goodbye to dear friends...




Then we took off on our cross-country trek to Arizona. First stop was Tyler, TX...
Then a visit to Texarkana. We had so much fun seeing our good friends there...


Next stop...Austin! Got to see Matt, Mendy, Maggie, Matthew, and Papa!


Fun at Uncle Matt's Museum...


Then Fredericksburg. Such a fun stop!

After 2 weeks, we arrived at our destination. Our first house-sitting gig...
We had so much fun taking care of chickens, a bunny, and Rosie the dog...


Such a fun yard! Too bad we jumped through that tramp ;)

Another "window" for his tongue...
Lots of fun at Grandad & Nana's pool...
Pamma took Ella to Colorado for a week...
We celebrated 11 years!
Sleepover with our cousins...


Got to go spend a few weeks at Pamma & Stanpa's in Arvada...



So glad we got to see Stacy and the boys. It was such a fun time!

These 2 were hilarious together!

Got to see our best VA buds who also happen to be from AZ...
The Family Jump...
Ryan & I got to drive back to Virginia just the 2 of us. We took our time and made a few stops on the way. We spent a few days in OK, saw our good friends the Downing's, and went to all the places from when we started dating.
Lan & I...
We stopped in Asheville, NC to see the Biltmore, which was incredible - and very romantic!
And so ended our summer journeys...
