Washington DC Day 1

We were so happy to have beautiful weather in October!

What a lovely day to spend time together.

Since we love to touch everything "Please touch" was great to see!

The Natural History Museum was a great place to visit!


Carys loved seeing all the sights just like "Night at the Museum"!

The Smithsonian Institute is an amazing building to visit!

We ate lunch and watched a fun video at this museum.

The gardens were amazing!

Carys and Madison enjoyed being together on the trip!

Carys picked up fall leaves everywhere we went!

Tom got us tickets to go up inside the Washington Monument!

It was a fabulous view of the DC area!

I loved this quote!

Carys loved reading all about Gearge Washington!

We walked to the Jefferson Memorial too!

It is one of my favorite places to be!

It was dark when we left. What a wonderful day we had!

Sarah's Birthday

Sarah turned 22 and we had fun celebrating her birthday!

Grandparents Day

Carys invited us to her school for Grandparent's Day. They sang

some very cute songs. I'm glad she has such a wonderful teacher!

Skateland and Carousel

Carys had a terrific time at Skateland!

Carys' school had a Skateland party and the girls had

a blast. They are just learning how to skate and

enjoyed being at the rink even with a few falls.

She was excited to see some of her friends!

Madison loves pink!

Madison had a marvelous time riding the carousel!
