Jan. 17, 2007 - field trip day!
Yesterday, dh decided we would take a field trip since he had the day off for MLK. So, we drove, literally right down the road to Mt. Vernon, George Washington's Home. It is gorgeous...what a view he had....the mansion sits right on the Potomac river. It was really neat....of course, our little blessings are a bit too young to absorb the history of it all...but, we had a great family day! The Mt. Vernon Inn there serves colonial food in dining rooms decorated from that time period and the servers all wear Colonoial outifts. That was fun and delicious!
Today, we did one lesson in Phonics and might do more this afternoon....I am struggling with sore throat and aches and pains....so, we might not get as much done as I would like to!

I am on Otis to come there. I have always wanted to go to Mt. Vernon!! I have been to DC once when I was about 13 and all we did was go to Arlington and the Vietnam Memorial Wall. So....keep scoping out those places for me so we can go.
