Here are some pics from our third trip to Virginia Beach with the Simcik side of the family. We stayed in a house with Granny Jo, Popsy, David, Laura, Ellie and Charlie. Leo and Ellie successfully slept in the same room (but not in the same bed as the second picture implies)! Our house was called "Nittany Li-on the Beach." We were in the middle of two other family-filled houses, for a total of 37 Nana-descendents and out-laws. A good time was had by all!
Cousins huggin' on our first night:
Oh, I guess Ellie and Leo have already fallen asleep. Night night!
Moms getting a well-deserved beer break
Leo and Ellie had so much fun with their sand/water adventures
David holding Frank holding Leo. Uncle Rob (not pictured) even tried to get under David! Those crazy Simciks! Ellie and I are just watching from the boogie board, singing, "Girls just wanna have fun."
If you can't find the water volleyball, a four-year-old will do
These two know just what to do for the camera
Cute cousins. (I'm kind of obsessed with dressing mine alike!)
Brothers at Baja, the bar across from our house!
Enjoying the free babysitting!
It's just not a Simcik beach vacation without a giant container of cheese balls (or two)!
Gus loved the muddy part of the sand...
...and the water...
...and the dry sand too!
Gus rolled around like a pig in the mud!
Leo was so brave in the water! Here he is with Frank, riding the waves.
