They say you marry your parents. This has always seemed crazy to me and completely illogical until times like last week take place on our trip to Washington D.C.
To watch both my husband and my dad become completely giddy over all the history and "teachable moments" while walking and talking with the kids, would be an understatement. From the White House to just about every museum and monument known to mankind, it was truly something to behold.

So, this is how I felt after walking 8,530 miles in a day, but it was worth it. The kids learned a lot and seemed to enjoy the time with Adam and Dad. Mom and I tried to keep up, but nothing compared to those two.
There's no telling what adventure we'll embark on next...and as amazing as D.C. was, I can only imagine what history will take place in the future.
