Our second day we went to Mount Vernon. It was so fun to see how George Washington lived. This is us behind his house with a gorgeous view of the potomac river. The trees back there were beautiful! We picked a perfect time to visit.
In front of George Washington's home.
On Sunday we were able to go to the visitors center, see the temple, and walk around the temple grounds.
The rest of the time we went into downtown DC. There were so many things to do there! When we went to the natural history museum, Parker loved looking at the bright colored fish.
We also got to visit some of the monuments. They were so neat. Going to visit all the historic places made me really proud to be an American...and also really grateful for the people who sacrificed for our freedom.
