The rest of the DC pics

The kids are gone again to Augusta for two weeks, so I'm going to do my best to get caught up on here.  We had an exciting spring and summer and I want to document it on here.  Since you've waited so patiently since April, here are the rest of the DC pictures. :)

If you don't know what this is, I'm going to need you to ask to revoke your American citizenship

This picture is to give you a sense of scale

Seriously?  Aren't they the cutest?

Hatching a scheme to give me a heart attack

Dad said I had to let him experience a little danger

Luckily, he's cautious like me

My heart

WWII memorial–the solemnity was a bit lost on the 5 year old

This is about as good a smile as I could get from this one

This one, however, is all about striking a pose

Again, this should need no explanation

We drug our kids all over DC for 12 hours on Thursday.  And they did amazing.  We walked over a mile in Arlington alone, so our best guess is that we walked about 5 miles that day.
They were such good little travelers.  It helped that they had just learned about most of what we saw in school, so they were so excited.  When we were walking up the steps of the Lincoln Memorial Harper was saying "It's happening!  We're actually doing it!" Adorable.
All in all, I wish the weather had been a little nicer, but it didn't rain, so that's something.  But we did everything we wanted to do and navigated the city well, I thought. It was a great first trip to our nation's capital.
