A Visit From Grandma








Grandma Eileen came to visit in February around Brad's birthday.  During her visit, she and Abby celebrated at a birthday party in Abby's room for one of her many imaginary friends!  While they were occupied doing that, Alex and I rearranged his room to make more floor space available for building with Legos.  We celebrated Brad's birthday at P.F. Chang's with family and Ray's the Steaks just the two of us.  We spent Sunday at the American History Museum and LOVED it!  What a fantastic museum!  Alex was enthralled with each exhibit, reading all the signs and looking carefully at the displays.  We stayed for hours and still hadn't seen everything.   We had a fun visit and look forward to her return visit in June!

Looking back at these pictures, the Washington Monument no longer looks like this.  It is currently fully surrounded by scaffolding to repair the damage from the Aug 2011 earthquake.
