New Slash Not New

We took a spur of the moment trip down to DC to catch up with a few old friends from NC.

_HAR0463

New: The US Botanical Garden's Christmas decor. Here's the capitol building made completely out of plant material.

_HAR0434

Not New: Our little cousin Buddy, not made out of plant material, but out of pure cuteness.

_HAR0439

New: Gretchen met up with her old friend Hanna. It was fun to see them hang again
_HAR0470

Not New: Kids are more attracted to the snow outside the garden then the cultural experience you are trying to give them inside the garden.

_HAR0465

New: Washington, D.C. Temple lights
_HAR0474

Not new: Gretchen eating dirty snow. She also has a bad habit of eating her boogers which we can't get her to stop doing either.

Not new: Micah passed out in her stroller, when she should be getting out her wiggles before the drive home.
_HAR0492

New: First time seeing the
Enola Gay
_HAR0504

SR-71 Blackbird
_HAR0486

The Space Shuttle, Enterprise
_HAR0531

Not New: Seeing a man become a boy again. (You can either gag or awe at that last sentence, but it's completely true. He knew all the names of his favorite jets from his childhood.)

You've just added another thing on my list of things to do before leaving NC: Head up to DC for the air and space museum. Love the pic of Gretti and Hanna - so darling.

Another 'ordinary' day for the Harris Family. Do you ever have a dull moment, or are you just extraordinarily good at making all moments appear awesome!?

Oh I miss you and your darling family! Looks like you had fun in DC.
