dc trip

Daddy celebrated his birthday a couple weeks ago! Hooray! He took the day off and we headed down to DC for our first family trip to the Smithsonians. Can you believe it? It actually was a very good day.
Our three kiddos strapped in for the long haul down.
Mommy and kids at the Washington Monument, well, we walked BY it, if that counts...
We decided we'd just go the Museum of Natural History this time. I think we all love the HUGE elephant that greets you in the rotunda of the museum. How can you forget it?
The kids found this brass monkey and thought they needed to take a picture by it, along with all the other passers by. What is it that makes us want to do this? Odd...
We had a GREAT day! Everyone did really well, and we even found a parking spot fairly easy. It was farther away from the museum than we'd anticipated and the cold wind about did us in while we walked around the construction on the sidewalk, but I'd say that was the only hiccup of the trip. A definite success!
