For our first trip with les deux we headed up to Virginia for our best friend, Lindsay's, wedding. We decided to go ahead and make a vacation out of it so we stayed in Washington D.C. for two nights after. The last time Danny & I had visited Virginia was for our grade school D.C. trips so we had no idea what kinds of things we could do with the kids. After some recommendations and research I found a child friendly winery that we decided to visit.
Thursday night we flew in so we would have all of Friday to do things. We went out to visit the Barrel Oak Winery and it was just amazing. I had no idea there was such beautiful scenery in Virginia...and great wine as well!
^^^If you know our family,
you know it's only fitting that there is a VW in the background :)
On Saturday, we had the wedding in the evening at another winery, The Farms at Hamilton Station Vineyards. Once again Virginia did not fail to please. The backdrop of the wedding ceremony was just breathtaking and made for such a beautiful moment.
The kids were a little rowdy so they had to watch the ceremony from afar.
The cocktail hour and reception were inside the rustic barn, but we spent most of the cocktail hour venturing the grounds with kiddos.
These kids could play with gravel all day if I let them...
After dinner Danny and the kiddos were chasing lighting bugs? or fireflies? Not sure what they are called, but we don't have these neat little things in Florida!
and we danced the night away...
Virginia was a wonderful time and we can't wait to go back!
