Our end of summer trip...

The summer was a lot of fun, but we stuck very close to home as we did not know if we would be moving anytime soon. So at the very end of hte summer we took a short trip to Kings Dominion in VA with all the kids. On the way down Don had a "surprise stop" for us.
We went to Washington DC for a day, which was GREAT!!
We started at teh International Spy Museaum, which while great for Don and Austin, was not so great for the girls. No strollers allowed, really geared for adults and very crowded.....
From there we moved on to the Mall, Washington monument and WW II and Lincoln Memorials. It was a beautiful day and the girls had lots of time to run around when they needed as we walked. It was a long day, but fun!


What a beautiful sight with all the flags flying...
WOW, Austin is a GIANT!!
Cooling off at the WW II Memorial. This is a really nice memorial with dedications for every state that lost soldiers in WW II and Star for every peoson lost to the war.

OK, blogger is not letting me add any other pics right now - ugh...
