Gilbert Visit!

It was so fun to have Jenni, Harrison, Truman and Lincoln stay with us for a few days.  The first day we went to the zoo.  The boys especially loved the bus ride and then train ride. The second day we left the house at 7:30am and didn't get home until 7:30pm!  We were able to see a lot of fun new things.  So fun to have family here to share it with!


First trip on the Metro for the Gilbert boys!






We ended up having pretty perfect weather for being out all day in June.  We got rained on in the morning but it stayed dry and cool the rest of the day.


New pictures in slightly different places.  :)




Yes, that was as close as we go to the White House.
We ended up going to the Ford Theater where Lincoln was assassinated.  It had a really cool museum across the street at the Peterson House, where Lincoln was taken after he was shot.  This picture shows a column of every book ever published about Abraham Lincoln. 


Early afternoon found us at the Natural History Museum.  At this point we were all exhausted and did not want to be standing another minute.  So we got tickets to see an IMAX 3D movie.  This is my fail at a model pose.  Looks more like I'm pouting.  But Kyle totally pulls it off.

The reason we stuck around all day was because we had waited in line in the rain to get tickets to  go up the Washington Monument.  It was spectacular!  So glad we had the opportunity to do it.

Trip home, and we still look pretty happy!
