Visit with Scott's Family

While on vacation in Virginia, we met up with Scott & Naomi. It was so great to see them again, and the kids had a blast at the Harrisonburg Children's Museum. Part of the museum is a stage with costumes (and makeup if you chose) to put on your own plays. Here is part of "Big Blue Riding Hood" (Joceline was the director...it was hysterical!). That is my nephew Grant as the lion-headed wolf, and my niece Autumn is Big Blue Riding Hood.

Here is Scott speaking into one end of a tube, and Autumn listening.

Scott and his youngest (for now), Maggie.

And here are all the kids together at dinner. From left to right there's Maggie, Joceline, Emma, Autumn, Grace, Alyssa & Grant.

And here are some of Scott's kids scaling the rock wall.

Another "fun" thing, racing around VA on stationary bikes. Here is Scott trying to beat Joceline.

My handsome nephew, Grant, and his lovely (and pregnant) mother, Naomi.

And here is Grace during the play...a dancing construction/firewoman (also a princess I think!).

Battle of the old dudes! Who will give out first???

Battle of the 8 year olds! Alyssa & Emma.

Massanutten Resort, VA

This year we took a vacation to Massanutten Resort, in Harrisonburg, VA. It was a gorgeous resort with lots to do. The girls favorite thing was the waterpark.

Here are my 3 favorite people~

We also swam in one of the outdoor pools. Both girls loved the diving board! Here is Joceline diving.

Almost every day we saw deer, up close and personal. Here are a pair of fawns...the mother was also nearby.

Here is Joceline getting dumped on while on the "Lazy River", which was more like the Rapid River...there was nothing lazy about it!

Alyssa practiced her front flips off the diving board, as well as split jumps.

Hershey Park

On Thursday August 26th we went to Hershey Park with one of the managers from Restaurant Depot and his 3 kids. We all had a great time!

Here is John dancing with Mr. Reece's Peanut Butter Cup!

The kids were hiding behind trees!

Here are Nick & Tommy, Billy's 2 boys...they were a lot of fun!

And this is Maegan with Alyssa...they were best friends the whole day!


And here are the kids doing bumper cars. Alyssa is all the way to the left (alone), Joceline is with Maegan right in the middle, and Tommy & Nick are on the right (blue shirt).

I took this while the girls were in this huge play area at Hershey. It wasn't overly hot, but that didn't stop them from doing every water ride there!
