Washington D.C.

We made a trip to Washington D.C. since Corey is off this week from work. I was thinking, hey it is a Monday it won't be that busy. But it was HORRIBLE. I have never seen so many people. And most of them were speaking different languages. Corey wanted to go to the Air and Space museum and I wanted to go to the Living History one, but I guess Corey won. It was a good learning experience for the kids, but I am not into the whole space and airplane deal so it was just ok for me. Corey wishes we could go back when we don't have a little baby who decides to cry and be grumpy the whole time. I think she was doing it on purpose. But the kids had fun and it was nice to go out as a family.

Gabe doing some hands on experiment, I wish I could have gotten my hands on his hair before we left.
This is basically what she looked like the whole time.

Up on the second balcony posing, I think Gabe looks almost homeless in this picture.

We had a quick bite at Wendy's for dinner. We found one by GPS located by the temple, and I thought we were in the ghetto part of town. It was a little scary. Lots of homeless people in there along with not so nice looking people. But we were hungry and tired of driving around so we ate there anyways. Then we headed to the Washington D.C. temple to look at the Christmas lights. It was nice to see the temple finally. It was so beautiful all lit up. Corey and I are going to make a big effort to make it there at least once a month. Little tougher with no one to switch kids with or my parents to watch the kids for us. The visitor center was nice as well.

They had a bunch of nativity from all over the world. This was my favorite, it was from China. I really want one.

So pretty.
