4th of July Vacation!

I am so excited! I get to go on an actual vacation this year!!! My Sister-in-Law and her family live about 40 minutes south of Washington, D.C. and they've been so kind as to open their house to us for a week. The last time I was on an actual vacation and not just a weekend trip or camping with Scouts was before my 5 year old son was born...and he's actually almost 6! So 7 years or so since I was able to leave the state!

We will spend some time in Washington, D.C. of course. I must see the Mall and the Lincoln Memorial, the White House and at least one of the Smithsonian Museums! We will get to ride our 1st subway (a 1st for all of us) and see our beautiful Capital City (although I am NOT brave enough to go into D.C. on the 4th!)

We will spend time visiting with family...the boys will spend quality time with their cousins...3 of them they hardly ever see, and we will be able to have fun as a family. No Internet, no work, no errands to run! Yeah! And of course I will come home with pictures and plenty to blog about, so I will see you all in about 10 days. Bye!
