Krispy Kreme

Woo Hoo! We found a Krispy Kreme in Alexandria! We were so happy to stop on our way home from Mount Vernon. The kids love to watch the doughnuts being made, and of course, love to eat the doughnuts. Yum!

Mount Vernon

Greg's parents and nephew, Brandon, came to visit us yesterday! We have kicked off our week of sightseeing with a trip to George Washington's home, Mount Vernon. We enjoyed VERY nice weather, and got to see the mansion, some demonstrations, animals, and even the grist mill.

More Swimming.....

Emma finished up her first round of swimming lessons yesterday. We are very proud of our girl who was declared 'ready to move up' to the next level. We have a busy July planned, but might pick up another class in August. During swim lesson time, McGinnis and I just hang out on the other side of the pool. He thinks the water is great!

Trailside Park

On Saturday we found a terrific park while on our bike ride. The kids had a fun time playing there while we took a little break.
