Chincoteague, Virginia


The Spencers used their limited time in Virginia to explore the beautiful area! We headed to Chincoteague Island for the weekend to hike and look for the elusive Chincoteague ponies.


Daddy and the kids are ready to set out.



We take a break so that Sophia can practice her photography.




Sophia, sporting her binoculars, is in search of some wild animals.



They are not over there...



Nope, nothing yet...




Ah, here they are!




And here!



Meanwhile, Gianni put himself in timeout...he is just really used to that.




We stop to take a peek at the Assateague Lighthouse.




The kids pose on the lighthouse steps.




Cheese...now bring on the hotel pool!



Mommy, Daddy and Gianni sit on the steps of the lighthouse...Sophia takes another picture.




The gang runs around on the soft sand, looking for shells.




Gianni runs from the cold water.




The kids relax on the patio and listen to the sounds of nature.





No vacation would be complete without a bit of shopping!


Gianni shakes hands with his new best friend.



Daddy helps Gianni ride the horse.



Mommy lends Sophia a hand as she gallops off into the sunset.



Gianni is very excited about visiting the train museum. Unfortuntely for him, this is the closest he got.



We see a store name after our nephew/cousin Jaxon...and spelled the same too!



We finish eating at the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel restaurant and head home.
