Right after school started for Connor, like literally that same week we greeted Uncle CJ and after a short visit and trip with Shea to DC we pilled him in with us as we left to Virginia for a REUNION with all the Stangers (minus Hawaii missioned Garrett).
It was quite a trip. We attempted family pictures. Spent a day at Water Country USA. Played at Busch Gardens, with matching t-shirts and all. And soaked in the sun on the beach. It was beautiful and jam packed and crazy and lots of fun. The kids had a BLAST! The water park was probably the biggest hit for them. It was serious stuff and the babies definitely drew the short straw when it came to being out and about but they sure loved the time being passed around and cuddled every chance we got.
We are EXTREMELY GRATEFUL for GRANPA and GRANDMA STANGER for planning and prepping and paying for so much so that we could have so much fun with SO MANY STANGERS!
We LOVED IT! And are itching to come visit them even more now!

| As you can tell BABY JACK was popular! |
 |
| Bella was a champ, she was super brave and awesome and did great except running off to Grandpa and making everyone think she was lost in the park for a good 15 minutes. |
 |
| This pretty much sums up Connor's feelings about Busch Gardens |
 |
| Poor Syd had about the most excitement for the park as possible but there wasn't much for her so she definitely won a big slushie at the end! |
VIRGINIA BEACH

| Seriously she's amazing! |
After the Reunion part was over it was time to say goodbyes and return home, but just a short while later we had Granpa and Grandma Stanger all to ourselves and the kids relished in it. I'll be honest we planned on really showing them a good time but as always Shea's work schedule/Connor's school schedule spoils everything and we mainly just played around the house. Shea did get to take them to Gettysburg one day and Bella got to tag along, she definitely won out this trip since she wasn't in school she got to spend a lot more time and have a lot more fun playing with Grandpa and Grandma. It was hard to say goodbye and we had many broken hearts for the days to follow.
