Williamsburg Grand Illumination!

Sunday was the annual Williamsburg Grand Illumination. I had heard so many wonderful things about this event, that I really wanted to check it out. Some great friends joined us up there and we had so much fun. The kids were all such good troopers and loved playing together. It was so nice to get to catch up with all the ladies. It was a long day, but the fireworks made it all worth the wait! They were the best fireworks I've every seen. Cody loved them. He kept saying "stars...boom...boom...boom!" the whole way home. He was so amped up he didn't even fall asleep in the car, which is amazing. He's still talking about them. Anyway we had a blast with all of you and can't wait to go again next year.

Cody's Favorite Daddy Activity - Tossing him up in the air - It makes Mommy very nervous!

Big Smiles!



What traveling is all about - SNACKS!

The Ride Home - I think this is how we all felt!

It looks like you guys had a ball! It is so cold here, I couldn't imagine going outside to enjoy fireworks!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and pictures on the event. We'll have to try to make it next year! Don't ask Trevor to share any of his Grayson-throwing antics. It's even worse than just up and down in the air!!

What a great time we had and you got some amazing photos of the fireworks - I'm realizing more & more how I need to 'upgrade' my camera! Thanks again for organizing our outing! What a long, but very fun day!
