Busy Days

Our busy summer continues! We just enjoyed a visit from my parents and niece. Since Grace had never been outside the Midwest before, we made it a point to fit in as much as we could from this part of the country. A trip to DC included Ford's Theater, plenty of monuments, and a quick stop at the Museum of American History. Another day trip took us to Virginia Beach (she had never seen the ocean before) and a stop at the Virginia Aquarium. We also fit in a visit to Chancellorsville (it's Virginia--a Civil War historical site was kind of a must) and the DC Dulles Air and Space Museum extension. Lots of driving, lots of memories.

Owen loved the various water features in DC (this one is at the Korean War Veterans' memorial). He stretched out so far at the WWII memorial that I thought he was going to fall in!
