Vacation time!






The kids and I flew out to join J for a little vacation. I will admit to being a little worried about traveling so far by myself with two kids, two strollers, two car seats, two big suitcases and a carry on, however it couldn't have gone better. The kids were great on the plane and we had a great time. Everyone was happy to see daddy after being apart for a couple weeks. We stayed in Old Town Alexandria for about a week and then drove down to North Carolina to visit some friends for a couple days. While we were in the DC area we rode the metro (train to Sara) in to the city for lunch, visited the zoo, went to the aquarium in Baltimore, ate lots of good food and were able to catch up with some old friends. Sara especially loved swimming in the hotel pool. She also really enjoyed playing with Jaleigh and Colten in NC. The plane ride home went pretty smooth also, despite it starting with a lovely couple in front of us who proclaimed as we sat behind them, "great, there's two of them", speaking of the kids. Too bad they didn't live up to their expectations and were pretty quiet all the way home! Overall, it was a great trip and we had a lot of fun but it is always nice to be home and sleep in your own bed!
