Me and the kids sat outside for lunch today and I got a little sun on my arms and neck.....it felt so great and I can't wait until we can go to the pool everyday. I have a million things on my to do list this week but I thought I should hurry and get pictures of our trip up before it doesn't happen. We had such a great time with Nolan and Ashley(my brother and his wife) and their kids. We stayed in a nice hotel in Alexandria which is such a cute town . We did just some of the basic DC things and also just hung out at the hotel and swam. The kids loved it and Matthew thinks we are going back to visit Thomas. Sadly, they only have a few more weeks there so we feel lucky to have been able to see them. 
Matthew enjoyed riding the metro as much as we did, Taylor not so much.
Our last night there we walked down king street to the water and rode the trolley and got ice cream. I think we had ice cream every night we were there....now that's a vacation.
We showed up a little early to get into the air and space museum. It was a little cold and you can see Taylor was not enjoying that part of it. Luckily it never poured on us while we were there and we got two beautiful sunny days.

We went to the zoo one day which was fun and so neat to see the panda. He was sitting there ating bamboo with his huge belly hanging. It was fun!

You can't really tell that there is a T-Rex behind us....hence the faces.
What a trip!! We loved it and can't thank Nolan and Ashley enough.

Jilly, I'm so glad you got to see Nolan & Ashley and the kids. I hope you loved DC. It sounds like you guys really had fun together. We have sure been thinking about you and hoping you'll be feeling better soon. You look great though.
What a fabulous time in D.C.! The weather looked gorgeous down there. I don't think cherry blossoms look beautiful anywhere else.
It looks like you guys had a great time in DC. How fun to have cousins that are the same age.
I'm glad you enjoyed D.C.! Isn't it a great place? I'm glad you saw the cherry blossoms, we missed them. You've done more than us, and we live here! You have such cute kids!
