The Home of George Washington.

So remember our awesome friends the Issacsons? Well the were nice enough to pick us up on Saturday and take us to Mount Vernon, the home of George Washington. We could have gotten there by metro via a bus ride but it was going to be tricky timing and they wanted to go just as much as we did! It was a lot of fun. It was HOT and STICKY and poor Brenna was nice and pregnant walking everywhere but it was so fun. We went on a fun boat ride down the Potomac and saw Maryland across the river. We waited in line to walk through the house and roamed around the compound. It is such a beautiful view and I can really see why so many people love Virginia. There also was a great museum that you can walk through a time line of Washington's life. Did you know that him and his wife Martha never had children and she was actually a widow...fun facts I learn. I Can't wait to bring my family here when they come to visit us! {Soon}
