Bay Week

We spent a week at the Bay House this summer!  It is pretty near a perfect vacation spot for doing all the different things that we love.  We were blessed to be there and to have a great Pop-Pop and Nana to make it possible!

Unfortunately, we were unable to get the motor on the boat to work, though the men tried!  So, the tubing and cruising that we looked forward to with that didn't happen.

Cousin B. and Sparky had time to become better friends, and of course we re-staged the cute picture we took last year. 



Turtle was old enough to drive the golf cart this year, much to her pride and delight.

Rosebud had an injury the very first day on the piles of rocks in the bay when an oyster shell (we think) sliced her ankle almost to the bone.  We were worried about nearby artery and tendon damage but thankfully, there wasn't any.  She had to get six stitches in what was our family's first trip to the emergency room.  It was very hard for her to have to stay out of the water the whole vacation, and to spend the first part of the week hopping on one foot, but she was very courageous and patient and her cheerful Rosebud spirit wasn't kept down for long! 

As you can see, she was still able to find some activities to do with her hurt foot!

We went into Yorktown for ice cream our last night there.  We are grateful for time to relax and have fun with our family!
