Thought it'd be fun for some of you to see how beautiful it is here.

The Easter Bunny came to McLean
The Easter Bunny came on the last day Morgan was here from Hawaii. We had a great day, but were sad Morgan had to leave that day. Apart from all the bunny stuff, we're so grateful for the Saviour that he rose again and gave us the greatest gift of all!
The Easter bunny seems to have a sense of humor.
Don't know if you can see it from the picture
but the big bunny left some tracks going up the
book case. Good thing I didn't dust that week
Recipients of the cupcakes, our friends the
Carraways, Brandon, Mary Lynne, and Carson
Spring Break 2009 Morgan here from Hawaii
Morgan came to visit us for a week during Spring break. We had a great time at the Hotel Monaco in Old Town Alexandria, riding bikes along the canal road into Georgetown, and, you got it, mom making the kids join her cupcake's anonymous. The addiction is still not under control. It was good to have him home.

Alright already, enough with the cupcakes...
It was fun doing them together though.
Riding into Georgetown. We had a picnic in
the park there. Great time!

Most Boring Museum On Earth
By far, the most boring museum I've ever been to.
Boring museum=Interesting pictures. What else
was there to do?
Smithsonian American Indian Museum. Don't
my kids look excited? This was before we
even went in.....
Very cool life size bronze statue. Pretty
yes, interactive no, kid interest level, oh so no
She looks interested. My kids thought it was
pretty creepy. It felt cool though.....
A face only a mother could love. Ready to ward
off any evil spirit, I assure you.
Modern Indian Art.
Top of rotunda. Beautiful building
Beautiful hat. Again, the kids were really
thrilled with this one. I thought it was quite
pretty though.
Here's where I came alive. I told them all
about Outrigger Canoe Paddling. Man I miss
that sport. Their interest level was staggering
as you can see by the pic.
The ride on the metro seemed to perk them up
Oh yeah, that was the itouch....
The hoods. Our friend Molly Carraway met
up with us and she definitely brought life to the
visit (although Clay looks like the grim reaper
and Luke's looking like Diablo....maybe life wasn't
what I meant...) Thanks Molly dear...you made
it much more fun!
At least the architecture was amazing. Actually
I think Indian History is TOTALLY FASCINATING.
But this museum didn't catch it for me. Maybe
they need a giant dream catcher to hang from this
roof. Might bring something interesting in the wind....
Luke's Blue & Gold Banquet
Luke's Blue and Gold banquet was really clever. They
had the boys dress up like an American Figure. They
memorized a song with all of the state capitals. Luke
loves cub scouts.
Fun times with Chloe

Chloe's FHE
Chloe loves to plan things. She's really great at it.
The other night she came up with this object lesson
right off the top of her head. She came out looking
like this and said how it's more important to look
at the inside of someone than the outside. She's
AWESOME!
