All The Latest!

We had our first summer visitor & our first visitor in our new house. Scott, Syd's older brother, decided to come out & visit us. We had a great time, & it was so nice to have beds and rooms for all 3 of us (something the Hamilton's know wasn't possible in our previous place). Here are some photos of the highlights.



We went to King's Dominion on Friday, & it was a pleasure as always. They have a new roller coaster this year called the Intimidator 305. Here's what it's all about.

The tallest and fastest gravity driven roller coaster on the East Coast screams along 5,100 feet of steel track at 92 MPH! At a whopping 305 feet tall, Intimidator is the BIGGEST and BADDEST steel roller coaster in the Mid-Atlantic and on the East Coast!



Then, on Saturday, it was on to D.C. We walked all around & saw the monuments. You have to at least see your nation's capital once, right? In the case of Syd & I, at least once every time someone comes and visits. :) We still enjoy it though. It was blazing hot & there were quite a few people there.

Fizgig was feeling very patriotic. I ended up carrying him most of the time. He's just a little guy, & everyone thought it was so funny. I guess he took me for a walk.


We kinda took Sunday off & just went to the branch & the local Greek Festival. It was awesome. Good food, crazy traditional dancing, & A LOT of people.

On Monday, we headed out to VA beach. The weather was so nice & it was such a beautiful fun day. Once we got there, we could hardly keep Scott out of the water. I think he would have been fine skipping D.C. & just going to the beach everyday.







Finally, on Tuesday we ended up at Pony Pastures. The water was SOOOO warm & nice. It was a great end for the trip. What vacation would be complete without jumping pictures?















It was a very enjoyable time, & we loved having Scott come and visit. Don't you want to visit us too?
