S'mores one more time....

Of course while Derick was in VA we had to do S'mores one last time!! We had a ton of fun...you never get tired of S'MORES!!!

Final Road Trip!!!

Our FINAL road trip in Virginia we decided to travel to Washington D.C. and we were joined by a special visitor!!!

That is right...Derick came into town and surprised the kids. This is not the best picture of Derick but it was the only one I have close enough to see him well and I think it is too funny with Sarah picking her nose!

We took a weekend trip to Washington D.C. and saw all of the sites that Kurtis loves the Air and Space Museum, Natural History Museum, The White House, Lincoln and Washington Monument, and The Capitol. It was so very very hot, we were quickly moving from one place to the other trying to not over heat.

Air and Space Museum- (The older one)

Natural History Museum-

Derick and I saw HP 7.2 on the Imax at the Natural History Museum!!!

The White House-

Washington and Lincoln Monument-

The Capitol-

We stayed right down the street from The White House at the J.W. Marriott, and of course with my mom's status at the Marriott we were up graded to a wonderful view.

Sarah was so excited to have McDonalds for breakfast!!!

Then we wrapped it up at the Washington Zoo, where we did not take many pictures, but we did get a picture of the Orangutans that pooped on someones head! It was not our heads, so it was funny to us!

After the road trip....

After the exhausting road trip....thanks Katie for driving and dealing with the children singing, screaming, and finally sleeping in the back....we decided to hang out at Pops and GG to help out around the house.

We had some family over for dinner a few times. Sarah with her Grand-Nanny.

Kurtis helped Pops cut the grass.

Sarah helped keep Cam occupied.

We ate corn from the garden....really the green thumb skipped a generation, my dads garden was fantastic...I can't even keep marigold for too long. I will keep working on it.

We saw a movie, Sarah's first movie, Winnie The Pooh which was cute...but she did last till the end. GG had to take her out because she was singing Jesus Wants Me For A Sunbeam while Pooh sang a song about Honey. Cute but the other people around us probably wanted to hear Pooh not our wonderful Sarah.

Sarah decided she could drive us home!

We played with the "little ladies", the remote beetle, and dress up items around the house.

Of course we played with Cam outside too.

and Hung Out with Bumblebee!!!

And this little girl turned into a DIVA!! She makes me laugh every day, she is just such a personality!!

Road Trip to Virginia Beach...

Aunt Katie needed to go to Virginia Beach so of course she asked us to tag along!! We drove down and took care of the items she needed to do and then drove off to the beach to enjoy the sun. The kids played in the sand and we even were there long enough to see a CRAB!

Then because we were on the road during dinner time, we obviously had to stop for dinner, and we decided to treat ourselves to WENDY'S!!! Sarah had fries in a frosty for the first time...you might say she loved it!
