This past week we went to DC to visit with my brother and sister-in-law, and, of course, to check out some sights. We made it to the Air and Space Museum, the Natural History Museum, and the National Building Museum. Here's a few pictures from the trip!
Santa Claus (aka Papaw) even made a surprise visit to cousin Caroline's - the kids were awestruck!
We loved visiting the National Zoo with temps in the 60s - the orangutans were our favorite since they don't have those at the Cincy zoo. 
The kids were troopers with all of us being in the same hotel room every night. Most naps looked something like this...
Best friends and cousins walking at the Mall across from the Smithsonian.
It was a wonderful visit and even better to have everyone together at one time. The only not so pleasant part was the return trip home. About 15 minutes before we landed, the nausea that I had felt off and on throughout the day wasn't going to wait and I ended up filling two bags of the airline barf bags - gross!!! I also ran into someone I knew at the airport and was too out of it to explain why I had vomit on my clothes. It was a humbling way to start the new year. Thankfully, I am feeling better and glad the virus helped me to lose some of the extra weight I had gained from the second (and third) servings of Christmas dressing - yum, yum!

Did we really need that much info on there? At least you didn't barf on the kids...
