Virginia & Washington, DC: May 14-17, 2009

We spent four fabulous days with Amy and her family and Todd and his family on the East coast. It was particularly great to spend time with eight of our 10 grand children.


We stayed at Todd and Kara's home in Woodbridge, Virginia. The kids have a trampoline and it was great fun watching them jump.


We visited a farm in Northern Virginia with the family. It is so much fun to watch Todd and KAra's children play with Amy and Tyler's children. They enjoy being together.




Randy is our oldest grand child. She had her first singing concert with her first grade class while we were there. It was so much fun to watch her perform with the classmates and friends. It's hard to see her in this photo but Randy is on the top row, second person from the left.


Our son-in-law, Tyler, (my favorite son-in-law) graduated from George Washington University with a Master's degree in Asian Studies. We were able to attend his graduation.



We were also able to spend time visiting some of the monuments on the Washington, DC mall.



We had not been to the World War II Memorial before. The layout of the memorial is great because it includes all 50 of the US states in the design.



We also visited Mount Vernon. This was one of the highlights of the trip.

  1. What great pics! I love the one of both of you with your grandchildren. Kathy, the little one on your lap (in green) really looks like his grandma... and Neil, I think your little granddaughter in pink looks the most like you. Isn't it fun?!? Now this "farm in northern VA" wouldn't happen to be Frying Pan Park, would it? Two of our kids live in this area, too. I've spent many a fun day there with our grandkids. Congrats to the new graduate, and to all!
