Spring Break




We spent part of Spring Break in Virginia & Washington D.C.! My brother and his family live in Virginia so my mom, sister, Anna Claire and Lizzie drove up for a fun visit. The girls had a fabulous time! Cousins - subway - zoo - the national mall - hotel rooms: what could be better? After a day of driving and another day with my brother's family we drove to D.C. and caught the Metro to the National Zoo. Lizzie was so excited to see the panda bears! That night we walked on the mall and saw the capitol at night - beautiful!


The next day we woke up and began seeing it all in 8 hours! 1600 Penn Ave - Vietnam Memorial - Lincoln Memorial - Cherry Blossoms - WW II monument - Smithsonian museums - National Archives - Capitol Hill - Union Station. Whew!!! I sent Russ a text to tell him that our girls did not appreciate the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution. He replied that they are not independent, they have no rights, and he is the king :)


5 days and 1553 miles later - great, memorable trip!

Surgery ...



Lizzie went to a friend's house after school today so I enjoyed a nice afternoon with Anna Claire. We did a little shopping and as we were walking through Costco she was talking all about our Christmas at my grandmother's house. My grandmother has 9 great granddaughters and 1 great grandson - it's a fun time! Anna Claire was talking about how much she loved the 2 new babies this year then she said, "I hope Ms. Amy (my cousin's wife) got that surgery." I said, "What surgery?" She said,"The one you get to stop having all those babies. She has 3 and that is enough, probably too many."




On a sweeter note she was a little sad when we dropped off Lizzie because she wanted to invite a friend over. She said, "Could we invite a friend, like Hunta (my mom) over to play?" I'm glad she has fun with her Hunta!
