Vacation in Washington D.C./Virginia

This post is dedicated to Jennifer Dixon. I hope you are happy.
This August we took the kids to Washington D.C. and Virginia. It was so fun. The first day there we saw the white house, Washington monument and the national mall. That night in the hotel John asked the kids what they enjoyed seeing the most. All three of them said riding the Metro. So, we fly all that way to see some history about our country and the liked riding the subway! We have taken them to Disneyland too many times. They need some culture!
We spent 2 days in Virginia watching our cousin Kyle play in a baseball tournament. It was so fun to be with Aunt Dianne, Uncle Matt, Nicole, Kendyll, Kyle and Kody. It rained alot but it is very memorable. We had a great time. The country there is beautiful.We drove in the worst rainstorm I have ever seen, I rode in the back seat with the girls!
We have made a movie of our pictures. Enjoy!

Wii

Christmas 2007!
We did a real snow job on our kids. All they wanted for Christmas was a Wii. It is all I have heard about for 3 months. I told them how hard it is to get one, they even saw on television several times how stores were sold out within minutes of receiving a shipment etc. I thought you would enjoy seeing them open their last gift. They honestly had no idea. They have had so much fun with it. John played with them on Christmas Day for 9 hours. The next morning John, Emily and Michael all had sore arms, Wiiitis! Enjoy.

Christmas 2007

Merry Christmas! We had a great Christmas, it was one of our best. The kids all slept in Emily's room. Michael woke me up at 4 am and I made him go back to bed, he came in again at 6 and I made him lay on our floor until 6:30.
Sophia got the bike she has been hoping for, Emily got a cricket and Michael got a RC Hummer. They were very appreciative of everything they got.
I have compilied pictures from Christmas morning and included some of the Christmas decor around the house. I hope you enjoy.
