Break!!











We had such a fun day going downtown over break to visit the history museum and then then the National Christmas Tree.  Abby loves to go to museums and it so great about reading everything and really interested in everything we see.  I admire that so much about her, I was never like that as a child and my Dad always took us to museums and I just hated it!!  My other girls are my pay back for my being obnoxious as a child and have that same opinion and do not appreciate the museums just like I did not!!  It did help to have Becky with us who is so funny, had so many tid bits about D.C. that were really interesting and then treated the kids to a huge cookie and diet coke!!  The highlight for sure!!  We met up with the Fredericksons at the Tree which I have to say was the ugliest National Christmas tree I have ever seen.  Amy's observation was that it was like one of those umbrella trees on the Grinch that stole Christmas.  It was not even shaped like a tree and was not big at all, kindof funny!!  We loved looking at all the state trees, Sarah found all of her friends state tree and sent them pictures of them.  The kids loved throwing pennies into the train, a huge hit!!   A very fun day!!
