Mount Vernon

One of the fun parts about living in the East is the history that surrounds us. I grew up in New Jersey and had the opportunity of visiting many historical sites on field trips, etc and never really appreciated it until now. I hope my kids get the same opportunity. Anyway, we went to Mount Vernon last weekend which is the home/estate of George Washington. It was amazing - and I didn't even get to see all the interesting stuff! Our good friend Alicia attempted to take an updated family picture for us. Let's just say the chiclets were not cooperating AT ALL that day, but we managed to get a few where we are all looking at the camera (SCORE!) It was a beautiful day and a beautiful place, we can't wait to go back and really spend time learning about what is there.

Maci and Norah are best friends for sure. So sweet.
