First Day in Washington (Trip December 2009)








These pictures are out of order but for whatever reason my computer wouldnt let me change them around. As tradition goes I have a hard time staying in Virginia when Josh has finals since we dont see him at all, so I take off with the kids and have fun while he studies in peace and quiet. Anyways, our first day in Washington started right as we arrived at my parents house after a long plane ride. My mom always has a snack for us waiting on the kitchen counter...something I love about going home. Brookie especially loved this snack since she was able to dip into the bowl all by herself. She loves to dip any and all food and lick it off. Then we went to get my parents Christmas tree. They had waited for me and the kids to get there to get their tree. All bundled up we headed out to the Christmas tree lot we always go to near our home and cut down our own tree. My dad had already picked out a great one with Jess before we were even there. He did wait for my mom's approval....smart man! haha! jk! Anyways it was quite the laughing matter to see us cutting the tree down. Taylor tried at first and according to my dad didnt get very far and then I finished it off. To argue our case of why it took so long...the saw was really dull! It was a fun first day and Brody and Brooklyn had fun cutting down the tree.
