Our first full day in VA we spent in Washington D.C. We had scheduled a tour of the US Capitol Building.
There were lots of cool statues to stand by.
The rotunda was amazing! The ceiling was incredible!
Grace grew to love Abraham Lincoln, mostly because she recognized him and he is in lots of places in D.C.
The kids grew pretty restless on the tour, but Ben and I thought it was really fascinating. Especially after reading the latest Dan Brown book, it was cool to be in the places he talked about. Plus, you know, all the cool History that happened here.
We were happy to find a familiar face... President Brigham Young's statue.
This is Ben and the kids in front of the Justice Building. We didn't actually go inside, but it looks really cool!
After our tour and some lunch we went to the Natural History Museum. Grace was really excited about this, because of the Night at the Museum movies. She loves those movies!
Benni the Buffalo with a buffalo.
Garett and a Dino.
The kids climbing out of a rock they probably weren't supposed to be in. The display did say it was okay to touch though.
Our little family and the Dumb Dumb (or the Easter Island Statue).
Besides the parking ticket we got we had a really wonderful day exploring DC with our little family!
