Great weather, keeping busy

We had some great weather this weekend. It even hit 65 degrees on Saturday!

The kids and I started our time together on Thursday with me picking up Tori from daycare and taking her to pick up Christian's taekwando uniform. We took it to the cleaners to have the patches sewn on (I have no sewing machine...). Then Tori and I picked up Christian from the bus stop and took him to his Taekwando lessons, then on to school night at Chick-fil-a (CHAOS!), then Christian went to his CCD classes.

On Friday we took it easy. Gram and Pop came to visit, and we did some work around my house, and laundry. Christian played Nintendo Wii with Pop all night.

On Saturday we got up super early and went down to D.C. for the day. As expected, the kids loved the subway ride (I took the Greenbelt train on purpose so a transfer would be needed). Christian learned how to read a subway map, how to buy subway tickets, and how to read the signs regarding which trains to take.
We went to the Air & Space Museum, and the Natural History Museum. We didn't visit each in completeness, but hit the big things. An IMAX movie about the moon visit and Apollo program history (Christian was floored by most of this), walking through space probes, looking at airplanes, a visit to the Hope Diamond (Tori!!!), and of course a walk through the dinosaurs.

And on Sunday, we went out to eat, and rested!
