The White House

Today we were looking at the calendar and realized that our trip to Washington is just 2 weeks away. Time is just flying by. We are taking the older two kids to see the Smithsonian and to take a tour of the White House. They are so excited. They want to see everything! Ben's parents live not far from DC so we'll be staying with them. John William's favorite movie is National Treasure ( we're so excited that a new one is coming out in Dec.) and he can't wait to see all of the history that he learned about in the movie. Even though I have told them over and over again that it won't happen, they hope that they can see President Bush or the scottie dogs. How nice that they are just as excited to see the dogs as they are to see our countrys leader. :)
