We went on a trip, and I hardly took pictures...

So here's the deal. I took my camera, and I even took a few shots. BUT, I can't find my USB connector for my camera, which means right now I can't download the pictures I took to the computer. Thanks for the memory card/usb tip, cheryl! I'm going to go get one of those this week. Anyway, i took a few pictures with my cell phone, but I just feel like posting my favorite.



HA! Anyway, we had a great time. We flew in early Thursday morning and spent the day in DC. We went to the International Spy Museum Thursday afternoon, and it was super cool. See info on it here.
We also spent some time at the National Portrait Gallery Thursday afternoon. Did you know that of all the Presidential Portraits we saw in there, W was the only one who did not pose in a coat and tie? I thought that was interesting.

Thursday night we went out to a DELICIOUS dinner at Georgia Brown's.
It was FANTASTIC. I love fried green tomatoes, and do you know their fried green tomatoes appetizer came with herbed cream cheese stuffed inside??? Holy Crap!

Friday we spent the morning at the Smithsonian Museums: the Museum of American History (which was recently renovated and fabulous), the National Art Gallery, The National Art Gallery Sculpture Park (for a little rest), and then made the horrible mistake of venturing into the Museum of Natural History (for one of my MANY potty breaks). Fridays must be school field trip days, and the Museum of Natural History is not where you even want to step foot inside. IT. WAS. AWFUL. There were so many kids between the ages of ten and fifteen that I wanted to jump off a bridge. Teacher-friends, more power to ya. You definitely have my respect. I would lose my mind completely.

After a morning of museum hopping, we made our way down the mall, to lunch, and then out the metro to Maryland to meet Cheryl! We spent a fantastic weekend in Baltimore with Cheryl, Mike, Abby, and Caroline. Friday night was grilling out, Saturday was relax day, Saturday night was a good dinner out and good times (minus when my heel caught on the flare of my jean and I fell flat on the concrete--no worries--i seem fine, as does baby), and Sunday was the morning at the Aquarium with Cheryl & Abby, lunch out, and naptime. Sunday night was big Mother's Day gathering at Mike's parents, and Monday was an early morning flight. Overall, the PERFECT weekend! C--thanks for having us. We had so much fun! I can't believe it had been TWO YEARS!
