One Thousand Words

Well, you have heard all about our vacation. At least most of the details. What follows is a pictorial accounting of "the rest of the story." These are the funny photos that I took, but didn't make it into any of the previous posts. Enjoy!



Miss Aspen; rockin' her shades on the Metro.

Mr. Will, chillin' out at the White House Visitor's Center.
Seriously, he loved any chance to get out of the stroller and roll around a bit.

Grandpa Pierce and Jack; I just love these pictures from behind. You see the two of them walking together, clearly wrapped up in their own little world.

This is what is referred to as the "Baby Fight." For some strange reason, all the men in Matt's family thinks it is hilarious to make them go after each other.

Funny juice we saw at Whole Foods. Yay for Uncle Matt!

After a couple of days walking around in the heat, Aunt Holli decided it was more comfortable to be 7 months pregnant in a wheel chair.

Here are three of my favorite kids.

I love this! Allie is reading Jack a book about Abraham Lincoln that Matt just bought for him.

Erin is loving her new shades she got from the street
vendor and she loves to mug for the camera.

"Brothers gotta hug."
Jack wasn't so sure about walking all over; they rode together quite a bit.

Erin, holding the Lutheran Seminary in Gettysburg on her shoulders.

Erin and Allie thought the tour was so cool. Because their tour guide was the head of the Adams County Historical Society, and because Dwight Eisenhower lived in Gettysburg after he left the White House, they got to hold an actual copy of his will. They were impressed!

Here is Miss Allie getting Lizzie and Jack ready for the day.
What a great helper.... and this will be great to show prom dates years from now.

Erin & Allie at the US Mint.

Will and Luke.... oh the fun these boys will have.

Awesome trip. I think my little brother did one of these trips with your family a million years ago!

So fun! Your family is so cute and your little Will is getting SO big.

Thanks for sharing so that I can live vicariously through you.
