The Mall at night is beautiful!

At the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier


Jer at the WWII Memorial! It is so cool to visit the memorials at night!
It made for a long day, but it was worth it. The kids were troopers, walking all over!
Sorry I thought I turned it before I posted it.

Nanna holding a hissing cockroach at the Museum of Natural History! She held a few bugs.

It didn't even occur to her to be scared.

The kids at the National Zoo. We spent a whole day there. Our favorite things were the Pandas and the giant octopus.

I swear I turned these picutres before posting. Oh well, I'm too lazy to change it now.

I thought this was a cute picture of KK.

Nanna, at the Pandas.

There is a funny story behind this one. This beaver took an interest in Jessica and seemed to be showing off for her. Samantha noticed and said, "Jesi, I think that beaver thinks your hot!" We all cracked up laughing and poor Nanna didn't know what was so funny.

This was right after our White House tour. We couldn't take a camera with us or take pictures inside, so we just got this one little picture on my cell phone after the tour.

Taking a break at the botanicle gardens. I just thought this would be a nice place to rest, but the kids loved looking at all the plants.

Our first day of touring!

Chad in the clink at Williamsburg.

This is a carousel at Pollen Park in Raleigh. I worked this Carousel as part of my job in High School. It was a cold rainy day while we were there so our family got to ride alone. I told the guy why we were there so he let it run extra time and took our picture for us. It was so fun!
