This past weekend we had a fun trip into DC and started our Halloween festivities. Earlier this week we were reading the book Goodnight Washington DC to Anna and Abby. After the page that read, "Let's have a picnic on the National Mall. Isn't the Washington Monument tall?" Anna asked, "When can we have a picnic by the Washington Monument?" Matt & I thought that was a good idea so on Friday when Matt had the day off we headed into DC. We decided to check out the Lincoln Memorial first then we walked down the mall to have a picnic near the Washington Monument. Besides enjoying the DC sites, Anna & Abby liked seeing the regular helicopters and airplanes flying low over DC, a horse-riding police woman who visited us during our picnic, and a little duck pond we found.
On Saturday we went to a Halloween party. Anna & Abby were both super excited to put on their Halloween costumes:
the cutest Mini Mouse and cutest bumble bee ever!!Look who else is Mini Mouse this year:
Teagan & AnnaAlso this weekend Anna & Matt continued and Abby joined in on an annual tradition of taking walks to look for spooky decorations. We also added some spooky (spiders hanging from our trees) and not-so-spooky (scarecrows on the lawn and pumpkins in the window) decorations to our house.
A perfect Glassman weekend! Anna seems to have a new attitude toward the camera which is nice. The new bumblebee costume on Abby is cute.
ReplyDeleteyes, that's true about Anna. Have you noticed someone else is now less interested in the camera?? Abby actually covered her face and said "no" one day this week when I tried to take her picture - ha!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing these DC pics, though they make me miss you guys! :( It's so funny to think of picnicking on the Mall that one sunny day many moons ago with you and Matt pre-kiddies:) Time flies, eh? So excited to see you all in a month! xoxo
