James discussing the WWII monument with his folks.

More of DC

This is the Washington Monument.

The Happy Couple:)

We remember that we DO have fun together still! What a refreshing time we had.

Father and Son at the WWII Memorial. Very cool.

James' little joke with his friend Matt. Each room had two bathrobes, so before we left, we were talking about what we could bring home with us...not the robes, but maybe this lamp...the list went on and on, a little silly.

This was the outside of the Willard. Isn't it massive?

Sight seeing in DC

So, Chad and laura were supposed to be coming along with us for our two day getaway..they however, came down with the flu... or something worse than that. James parents came along, which was very fun. We probably ran tham ragged, but you wouldn't have known! We were enjoying or freedom for two days...but talked often of our three little ones. Ironic.

Washington DC

This was the lobby of our hotel. The Willard, on PA Ave...just two blocks from George W. Everything was marble, beautiful and old...lots of history. The hotel had fresh flowers out all the time. So pretty.

boxing?

Aunt Laura and Uncle Chad got these gloves for James for christmas. I think they kids loved them!! Isaac and Grace duked it out..so now, when they fight, we just get the gloves out:)

Cow girl!

DRESS UP TIME

The Girls love to dress up. Anna looks like a princess cowgirl! They are both getting so tall, we see these pictures and wonder how fast time goes!
