We visited Jamestown settlement, founded in 1607, the first permanent English settlement in what is now the United States of America. It was a fun hands-on place for Bailey and Corbin. They got to touch and do everything from scraping out a canoe, to shaving wood, to steering a ship, to exploring Indian teepees. It was great.
The funnest part of the trip was our stay in Colonial Williamsburg with Kenny and Christan's friends, the Cooks, who used to live on their street in Woodbridge. The Cook's volunteered to put us all up in their home. They gave up their beds, cooked us all our meals, tended Drew, and entertained us royally (what's better than home movies of Disneyland?). It was one big pajama party!
Bailey and Corbin loved being with their good friends again - well, so did Kenny and Christan, too. These are great friends!
One of the highlights of the trip was when Kirk and the kids found an Eastern Snapping Turtle in the gutter. He let the Cooks adopt it when we left. All in all, the trip was a great success!

You guys are the best grandparents! Second only to BEVA! What fun!
Glad you got so many pics of Jamestown. I don't have a one.
GASP!! How has it taken me so long to see what you had to endure in the early morning hours!?!? SO SORRY! We LOVED having you and hope the wake up call won't keep you from coming back! You still have a LOT to see and a turtle to take home!
