Annapolis Sail Boat Show 2011

This past weekend the four of us were able to meet up with my husband's sister, Jennifer, and her family to travel  to Annapolis for this year's Sail Boat Show. I'd say it was quite a challenge for all us having 7 children there (our two and their five), but despite the chaos of keeping up with the kids among 50,000 other sailing enthusiasts, our trip was a success. We were blessed with beautiful weather, were able to view and board many million dollar boats, and were able to spend precious time with extended family.

Of course I took oodles of pictures (both with my digital point-and-shoot and my DSLR), but I will only show you the several best of the bunch and let the photos tell the story of our adventure.





































Jeremiah and Jenn were lucky enough to take a little tandem Hobie Mirage with a sail out for free because it was on demo. They enjoyed the quick sail despite their soaked bottoms at finish :)  (Wish I would have had my DSLR for this shot!)


I'd say the highlight of the adventure for the children was during our several rest breaks that allowed for lots of playtime.




Whew... I guess I might have lied a little bit about only showing you a couple of pics, but it's just too difficult to choose the best even out of this group. I just had to show them all to you!

We're so thankful to have had the opportunity to get our families together to do something we are all very passionate about. We're hoping next time we can go on an actual sailing adventure!

  1. Wow, Breena! You got some really great shots of the kids! Love these! The last one of Ava made me literally gasp. I think it's one of my favorite pics of her so far...love the lighting and her eyes look incredible in that one. Wish we could have been there with you guys...looks like fun! Maybe next time. Love y'all and glad you linked up this week!
