This past weekend, Sophie and Mommy and Daddy got to go to Washington, D.C. to watch Uncle Mike(s) graduate from GWU. We were all very proud of Uncle Mike(s). Since we were in D.C., we decided to do some site seeing. First, we spent Friday going to the Smithsonian Museum's Museum of American History. There, Mommy got to almost fulfill a lifelong dream (granted she only developed this dream a few hyears ago, but life long nonetheless) of meeting Stephen Colbert.
Then, Sophie got to pay hommage to one of her idols who upon seeing she reverently called in a hushed whisper "the Grouch"....
On Saturday, Mommy and Daddy made two attempts to see the White House with Sophie. The first attempt ended with a sudden trip to a coffee shop to avoid the rain. There, Sophie got to enjoy a fine breakfast of water and chocolate-glazed donut. Mommy and Daddy and Sophie eventually made it to the White House later in the afternoon...but almost didn't make it to dinner because Mommy and Daddy like walking too much and tend to loose track of time. Whoops!
Here's Mommy and Sophie with Gramps and Uncle Mike's Saturday graduation for the Carnegie school of Arts and Sciences. (There is currently a dirth of photographic evidence of Uncle Mike's Sunday overall school graduation, which was truly awesome. Since it was rainy, Sophie and Daddy checked out the Smithsonian museum of Air and Space as well as the Natural History museum - see below - Mommy went to the graduation with Grams, Gramps and Aunt Allison. It was on the National Mall, between the Capital building and the Washington monument....Mommy is officially jealous of Uncle Mike)
