Grandma, Papa & Muma come to town

It is always so much fun to have visitors. The kids get so excited. This year for the first time we ate Thanksgiving dinner with extended family. Jason and I have eaten about 19 Thanksgiving Dinners together. Only maybe 5 of them have been with extended family. We have been looking forward to this weekend for a few months. We were so glad that Jason's Muma made the trip all the way from Sweet, ID. It was a busy week with lots piled into each day. We went up to Harper's Ferry, West Virginia. This is a very historical civil war town. We ate at the local dinner. The waitress said that we doubled their business for the day. We went into all the museums and really had a great day.
It was so much fun having Jeff and Linda come to see us. Thanks so much Grandma. Papa and Muma for coming to see us! We love you.

Harper's Ferry is so beautiful. It is set right where the Shenandoah meets the Potomac River. The train goes right through the town. It really is a beautiful spot.

Isaac found a gift shop. He had his heart set on a civil war hat and gun. He wanted a real authentic looking rifle. We could only find a wooden one. He got his hat and gun and was all set.

We also went into DC to see the Smithsonian and all the monuments. The changing of the guard at Arlington Cemetery was a big high light. It was such a beautiful day to sigh see.

We went to the outlet mall to try and brave the crowds and see what deals we could get. It was a lot of fun. We were sad to have the weekend over, but I guess that means that the kids can go back to school...YEAH!
