D.C. Part 2

The next stop was The Natural History Museum.

The girls were starving, fruit roll ups weren't getting it done, so I broke down and bought them some real food. This "real food" was a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and a hot dog. It only cost me $18.00. This is why Jason had to stay home and work!

She better be enjoying that sandwich!

The girls favorite stop in this museum was the rock collection, just like their dad.

I was hoping for something better than the "Hope Diamond". People were not impressed with the Hope Diamond. It was a little disappointing. I would personally take any diamond I could get.

I think he has been in a movie somewhere!

The girls checking out all the people.

It was super cold that day. We were cuddling to stay alive.

Our next stop was the Air and Space Museum. We saw everything in record time. Jessica was parked out front waiting for us. You don't want to make Jessica mad when she is behind the wheel of a mini van.

Halle made a new friend. They got along so well.

The cherry blossoms were pretty, but I loved the Tulip Trees. We took this picture while Jessica was waiting for a man to pull into a parking stall. She only honked 5 times at him. Jessica taught us a lot about driving in D.C.

D.C. Part 1

We told Jason we were going to go somewhere for Spring Break. I thought that with that he would clear his schedule and come with us, boy was I wrong. He had to stay home and pay for our vacation. Poor guy! He missed out, big time!

This is the girls making sure the Ipad works before we left for D.C.

We left for the airport at 1:00. The plane was supposed to leave at 3:15, it didn't! We missed out connecting flight in Denver. I was freaking out! When we finally got off the plane in Denver the lady at the ticket counter told me we could fly out tomorrow night at 9:00p.m., or fly in to Baltimore. Where the heck is Baltimore? After freaking out and calling Jessica in Virginia, she told us to get on the plane and they would pick us up in Baltimore. Jessica, Sterling, Little Man, and Dellin all picked us up at the airport at 2:00a.m. I can't say enough how awesome Jessica and her family were to us! They were troopers!!



Jessica had our beds out and ready for us when we arrived at her apartment. It was a little stressful getting there but worth it!

Check out the cute quilts on the beds. Dellin is wondering what the heck in going on!

Our first stop was the National Museum of American History.

We really liked The First Lady Exhibit. This is Michelle Obama dress.

We also saw the first flag that Betsy Ross made. It is huge. The girls were teasing while I was taking this picture. Sweet Girls!!!

Dorothy's Ruby Red Slippers. SO CUTE!

Halle needed a little break, what am I saying, so did I.

After a hard day at the museums we were off to . . . more museums!

More to come if I can figure out how to upload my pictures to the computer. My new 4G memory card wont upload!

Halles skills

I can't put pictures of my girls in their dancing attire or weird men will stalk us so I haven't had as much to blog about lately. So here goes sewing 101.

Halle finished her P.J. bottoms at sewing today. They are super cute. I am super proud of her. She is great at everything she tries, sewing, gymnastics, dancing, piano and swimming. She takes after her dad!

I thought that I would WOW the kids this weekend with these cinnamon rolls. They took 2 1/2 hours on Friday and then 2 more hours on Saturday. What a waste of time. The girls decided that they like the rolls that I did the week before that only took 1 hour. AAARRRRH!
