Dinosaurs, tigers and bears, oh my!

A trip to the National Museum of Natural History reaped many interesting rewards for Graham and Julia...

Both children were more intrigued with the huge elephant in the main lobby than with the dinosaur bones. In the mammal section, Graham was fascinated by the giraffes, as you can see from one of the photos.

Enjoy the photos...we enjoyed the trip, and its aftermath--long naps for 2 days in a row!

Zoo Lights: Hedgehogs and Porcupines

and Aunt Annie! We went to Zoo Lights at the National Zoo.

Graham was fascinated by a hedgehog that moved possibly an 1/8 of an 1/8 of an inch in 15 minutes. Little man has focus and patience at times!

Julia said "Meow" and waved to the Lemurs and danced to the musicians outside.

All in all, a lovely evening.

Merry Christmas 2009

We had a lovely Christmas...Washington was covered with gorgeous snow...as seen here on top of our outdoor Christmas tree.

Cars, kitchen and tea sets, tractors, 'noisy' guitars and musical instruments, books and other goodies kept Graham and Julia happy.

Our dear friend Stuart Meyers kept Graham happy while dinner was cooking...and various friends and neighbors came over late into the night.

Here are some pictures, enjoy! I know we did.
