We've come to the conclusion that no one does perfect Spring weather quite like Washington DC. Simply pleasant. Being from here and going there in April is like fast forwarding a month of time.
Peter and I flew out last weekend, it had been a year since Peter had seen any of them, and it was good to catch up!
We started things off with Saturday morning
soccer, all the fans were out!
Rita was a
star and her team had a convincing 7-0 win!
Saturday afternoon brought
Little League for Sam
And a fashion
clothes swap for Andrea and me
For dinner we went to the famous 29 Diner, the
juke box was a huge thrill!
And the food. Oh my! the
food!
Clara was taken with talking to herself on the
phone :)
My phone regularly gets absconded while visiting, it was locked, but the camera was still available.
Sunday selfies!
Uncle Peter is a huge hit with his
reading, always a gaggle around him
Sunday afternoon Peter and I headed downtown for a hot date at Ford's Theater. Coincidentally, we visited just 2 days before the 150th anniversary of his assassination.
We continued playing tourist by walking the mall and checking out the
cherry blossoms
Another
absconding of my phone resulted in this:
Monday the kids were off school, we headed to the Native American Museum, the kids hands-on area was very fun and entertaining.
Basket
weaving and listening to various
bird calls
Learning about
kayaking
Lunch at the
Zoo Bar
Afternoon at the zoo, this was the
Amazonia - very cool!
Beautiful
blossoms were everywhere!
There was a lot of hanging around the house too
It was a busy and fun trip, we're looking forward to seeing you again in June!
