A Surprise Visit!

Adam, Dad, Jake, and I somehow managed to keep a fairly large secret for about 2 months and surprised my mom by showing up in her kitchen 2 weeks ago. It was a blast to go hang out with them for a full 2 weeks. We had lots of fun relaxing and taking in some new sites. We even got to go on a White House tour this time, which was very cool. But you can't take any cameras on the grounds, so there aren't any pictures.

We finally got to visit the DC Temple and do a session together.
It was fun... and beautiful as always.


We always get to have fun with Tex. Here he is wearing Adam's hat.



We visited the National Zoo. Some animals were still
put away for winter, but it was still fun!




We took one afternoon and drove to Fredericksburg to see the sites.
This is an old house at Chatham that became a major headquarters
for Union soldiers in the Civil War.
I would LOVE a house like that!




Here is Adam outside the Rising Sun Tavern, a place our
Founding Fathers are said to have frequented on many occasions.


Mom, Dad, and Jake went with us on a day trip to Monticello
to see the beautiful house of Thomas Jefferson.

Here is Jake doing a jig in the gift shop.
