Washington DC

Pappaw & Granna treated us to a wonderful trip to Washington DC. We did so many fun things like ride the Metro and go to many museums. I really liked the Natural History Museum. I wanted to see every single exhibit in this museum including dinosaur bones, bugs, and butterflies. We were able to go to a butterfly house too. I held a grasshopper, walking stick, caterpillar, and cockroach. We also visited the Air & Space Museum and saw lots of airplanes and space craft. I got to see money being printed at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. I walked the trail of the first postal service in our country at the Postal Museum. I saw lots of American Indian artifacts at the Native American Museum. We also saw a good bit of art at the National Art gallery including some modern art using keyboard keys, trophies, and $32,000 worth of used losing lottery tickets. We saw the Capitol, White House, War World II Memorial, Koren War Memorial, Vietnam War Memorial, Washington Monument, and Lincoln Memorial. We spent a day at the National Zoo and another day at Mount Vernon (George Washington's home). We also went up the tower at the Old Post Office to look over the city. Oh and we walked across the Key Bridge which was a lot of fun as well. We had dinner one night with one of mommy's college roommates. On the way home we stopped at our cousin's new house and I had lots of fun playing with Bethany and Jackson. Probably the best part of the whole part of the trip was spending time with my family.
