A few weeks ago I got an email which contained some very interesting words, such as: Washington DC, cheap babysitting, temple trip...where do I sign? DC was one place that we've been dying to visit, and it has been way too long since we've been to the temple. We also knew that we couldn't drive clear to DC without taking complete advantage of the situation. So we tagged along with two other couples in our area, the Bostons and Torgersons, such fun people, and had a fun temple/site seeing day. We definitely didn't hit everything that there is to see in DC (that could take days), but we were able to see some cool things, and we got familiar with their transportation system (thanks Kelley!), so that next time won't be near as intimidating!

This is
Jayda's new signature post, one hand out like that...perhaps she's starting a trend

Capitol Building, it was kind of cool to be in the same place that the
inauguration had just happened weeks before.

Standing in front of the Washington Memorial. We definitely scored on the weather that day, it was gorgeous, none of us needed coats!

We spent most of our time in the Museum of Natural History. It was really cool, and had so much that you could probably spend all day in that one museum. The day would have been absolutely perfect had our kids been just a little happier. They were pretty cranky from getting up so early and being so out of their element. Part of being a parent right! Lucky for us we have three years to check it out again!
This is a hard picture to see, but it's me posing under a gigantic whale. It took every ounce of courage I had.

Oh sorry, I don't know how that got in there, that's just me first thing in the morning.

I'll never take being able to drink out of a cup for granted again!
Jayda with her signature pose again, I should send this to
Tyra.


"Please, just put me out of my misery!" Luckily the kids slept the entire way home.

We had so much fun with your family. We felt bad for Sykler? Poor think he was not feeling good! You crack me up! You are a cute person and mom. I hope we can hag out more often!
That looks like so much fun. We still haven't done the DC day trip yet. We need to get on it :) I'm surprised the kids lasted all day. Good for you!
I love how you captured the awe and amazement on Glenn's face as he stood there admiring the grandeur of the temple fountain. Few sights are as profound, I know.
Looks like you had fun!! I love DC...the best part is that everything you want to see is FREE.
Looks like you had so much fun. I have always wanted to the Washington DC temple. What a cute family.
looks like a lot of fun! I can't wait to go down there again, there is so much to see, I love it!
Someone told me once that it could take two weeks to see everything there is in DC!! It sure is fun isn't it, I love the museum of natural history :)
Um Teresa, you have poop on your face.
I can't wait to visit DC! Looks like a lot of fun! By the way you are gorgeous!
