Spring Break

Mom and Dad Peterson flew out and joined us for Spring Break! It was WONDERFUL!!! We had so much fun having them here and it was a great and much needed break for everyone.

We hung out here in Norfolk for a few days, went to Jamestown and Yorktown for a day, and toured around DC for a few days. Braden LOVED having Grandma and Grandpa here and it was so sad to have them leave. We love it out here, but sure miss our families!

JAMESTOWN

Preggo and proud! Haha!

So serious. Looks like he could have just fit into the role!

YORKTOWN

Braden sure loved having his daddy around all the time to play with!

Showing Braden the techniques of skipping rocks. :)

Are they just so cute!! :)

This turkey was hissing again and again at us, and although the people working there said it wouldn't attack, none of us were so sure. The thing kept coming towards us and making this scary noise. I've never really been close up to a turkey before, and never thought imagined it would be this scary. Braden and I were both pretty jumpy around the thing!

WASHINGTON DC

Marine's Museum

I was all excited about these little stands...Braden not so much.

Isn't it supposed to be the other way around?

And this was the best! Every time they found a hill and had the chance Justin would run up it with Braden and teach him how to roll down. Braden never quite mastered it, but he sure thought it was a ton of fun! He doesn't get much practice around here. It's flat as can be in Norfolk, and the only hills of any kind around here are the ones built up for freeway exits/entrances!

Downtown DC

Braden got to hold a caterpillar, millipede and a few other fun bugs at the Natural History museum. It was one of the highlights of the trip for him. :)

Nap time on the go.

NORFOLK

Botanical Gardens

Mom and Son! How sweet!

It ended up being freezing cold (well, not literally freezing, more like 50 degrees kind of freezing - I know, I know, we're totally wimps out here!) the whole time they were here, so sadly it wasn't a very warm Spring Break. But we had so much fun in spite of the bad weather!

Love you guys!

Can't wait to see you again!
