Vacation to Maryland and Washington DC

Last week we went to visit Chad and Bren. We had a great time! We went to the National Aquarium of Baltimore and the Washington DC Zoo. Chad and Bren rolled out the red carpet and were great hosts! Here's some (I mean loads) of pictures from our trip.

Cale, Megan, Ethan, Ireland, Bren, Addy, and Aden--waiting for the Dolphin show

Ryan, Ethan, Ireland (nice glasses! Fashion first!), Bren and Aden. I think they were looking at a beaver.

Da Boys at the Aquarium! That big boy is hot!


Ireland and Ethan at the Inner Harbor in Baltimore.

Me and Ethan. He's a mama's boy! Yeah for me!

Here's a few of the sites we saw...

Washington DC temple from the freeway. I was not driving--no worries. I can see how people could crash when they see this. Is is so beautiful, you forget you are driving and want to stare at it. If you haven't seen it from the freeway, it appears all the sudden and takes your breath away.

A lion at the zoo. He was hiding behind the bush, but I got a pic as soon as he popped up.

Ethan loved seeing a tiger close up.

A sharks mouth at the aquarium. Mighty big.

A lioness on the prowl.

And back to some more pictures of the family...
Scott and Cale. Handsome fella's!
Ryan and Caleb both had to be held by Scott at all times. We knew Ryan was a Daddy's boy, looks like we've got another one!
Bren and Aden outside of the Baltimore Aquarium. We couldn't get Aden to look at the camera to save our lives! 3 year olds!
We dragged Bren around with us everywhere. We apparently wore Addy out.

Ryan insisted on pushing Aden in the stroller.
Aden and Ryan had a blast together! I think Aden was in serious need of someone his size to wrestle with. They were so cute together!

Luckily Ireland has girl cousins. She was in heaven playing with Addy. Addy was such a great baby! She smiled everytime you said her name and was sooo good! I could just take her home with me!

We loved having you guys! We miss you all so much already. Thanks so much for getting me out of the house and helping me with my kids everywhere we went. We had so much fun! We can't wait to see you again next month. Hope you don't mind if I steal some of your great pics from the Aquarium. I will post my pics as soon as l load them to my computer.
