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!
