Spring Break

Kaylin is on Spring Break right now and we’ve had quiet the vacation!
It started last Saturday, leaving the house at 5:30am for Tennessee. We spent 2 nights at Grandma & Grandpa’s house (Jeremy’s mom & step-dad) and the kids had a blast playing with their cousins. Jacob is 4 and Nicholas is 2. The boys are all 9-10 months apart from each other, so I have a feeling they will only have more fun the older they get! We actually didn’t get any pictures from this leg of the trip. I will try to remember on our way back home on Sunday.
Next stop, Mama Lorraine’s house in Winchester, Virginia. Again, we stopped for 2 nights. Mama Lorraine is 83 years old, we HAD to get the kids out of the house to release some energy. We found a park near the Shenandoah University campus, complete with a creek, a groundhog, and some ducks.

After Mama Lorraine’s house, we headed out for Washington DC. Jeremy, and obviously, the kids, had never been. Jeremy and Kaylin were really looking forward to this part of our vacation. One of Kaylin’s favorite movies is Night at the Museum Battle of the Smithsonian.

There are a LOT more pictures in our Picasa album, hopefully also on  Facebook once we get home. I’ve had issues trying to upload them to Facebook through these hotel internet connections.
