Whew! What a busy week it's been catching up from vacation. We spent the week before last in Virginia Beach with the Young clan, and we haven't stopped since the minute we arrived home. City swim meet, working extra hours to make up for last week and the start of both football and field hockey (not to mention the laundry from the beach!) has meant a full schedule...all good, but busy! It's nice to sit down and look back at the relaxing week we had in Virginia...
We stopped along the way for a visit to Washington & Lee University, and it was fun to see where Dick went to school and hear some of his stories from his time there. Loved this beautiful campus, but I told the kids the ride to get there through the mountains of West Virginia could be a deal breaker if this school ever ends up on their short list!

From there we headed over to Appomattox for some Civil War history. This was a neat place to see, but before too long the kids were ready to get to the beach!

A few hours later we arrived in Virginia Beach where we spent a great week with family on the beach. Rich, Lori, Tanner, Taylor and his friend Ashley beat us there and had the house opened up and ready for us. Dick rented a beautiful beach home with four floors of beach views, and everyone had a wonderful week relaxing and having fun...
