My sister Miranda and my sister in law, Savannah are here to visit! We have been having a very good time. It is Savannah's first visit to DC and I feel like she must see everything! So it has been a bit crazy as we try to do stuff while juggling my 5 children and Miranda's super-cute 5 month old baby, Camden. We have done a lot in the last few days and boy, am I tired!!
We walked to the White House so Savannah could check that off her must-see list. My girls were unimpressed.
Camden enjoyed the Korean Memorial more than Delaney who was hot and grumpy. It was a pretty stinkin' long, hot (VERY hot!) day.
The Lincoln Memorial has cool AC in the lower exhibit part. Here Savannah and Delaney are taking a break and cooling off.
Rylee got reeeealy tired of sitting in the hot stroller. Did I mention it was 96 degrees out there? I let Rylee out to run around, and she kept running the wrong way. It greatly impeded our progress, but she felt better. That's the WW2 Memorial in the background.
Delaney had fun posing for lots of pictures.
And here are Camden and Rylee at the 911 Pentagon Memorial. They were properly somber.

I must share my 2 favorite things that my children have said this week. They are such interesting little people and I love the way their minds work.
Joshua was talking about his friend who said he had better things to do on Sunday than to go to church. Joshua said to me, "What excuse could possibly be more important than church?!" I love my boy!
Marian was talking to Aunt Savannah and told her "My greatest wish in life is to kill somebody with my bare hands. That would be fun." I love my girl, but I am a little disturbed by that, and also strangely amused.

Your Marian has an interesting mind. Just what every mother loves to hear--her daughter's greatest wishes. It sounds like something Henry has said, but his are more along the lines of really, really wanting to shoot a missile at someone (only the bad guys).
