Outside the Box

Jul. 29, 2009

The End is a Beginning.

We said our goodbyes and made our way back to Washington DC starting early in the morning as Brian said that construction caused some delay. 

The delays for us were minimal so we stopped for lunch at Bob Evans.  Here is a photo worth a thousand words. 

From On the way.
Samuel is wanting a taste of his sister's soup.  Spoon poised ready to go.

Our travels from there to D C were quick enough that we had an extra hour of time to spend.  We went to the LDS Washington DC visitors center.

From On the way.
Since our faith promotes building families they have a set with a living room and you can watch the Mormon Ads by subject.  We never see these as we don't have cable nor do they broadcast on the Arabic stations.  It was fun to watch them.  They make you laugh and cry. 

Before we left I had the kids stand by the reflecting pool and took their picture.  It is beautiful.

From On the way.

The perfect way to end our trip.
From On the way.
Our flight home was good and uneventful.  The weather is warm and we appreciate being here.   We are glad for the opportunities that we have to experience so many new and different things.  We love the United States and thank God for the people who have sacrificed so much so we can be free. 

We met several fine people who have made many sacrifices on our behalf this trip.  We are grateful for all that they do and have done for us so that we can have rights and choices.
