Fall Break

Our family spent fall break last week in Philadelphia and Washington, DC. Our tour director was Miss Jenny, who has planned, organized and labored over details of the trip for what seems like six months. Everything was seamless. We had a wonderful time, and I think we all have a greater appreciation for our nation's history and current government. I was surprised and proud of how much our kids already knew about these great places we toured. Highlights for me were the White House, the Lincoln Memorial, and watching a Supreme Court trial. I also enjoyed shopping and hanging out in Georgetown. Seeing the Declaration of Independence in the National Archives after visiting Independence Hall in Philly, where it was signed, made me feel very connected with our founding fathers.







Yo Adrienne! I am thankful for safe travel. Enjoy these photos. More pics of the backyard coming soon.
