We got up early, loaded up the car because it's always a million things to bring with us, even for a one night stay and hit the road. Once we arrived in D.C. we headed right for the museum.
In 4 hours we covered every square inch of that building. We all loved seeing the mummies, with the exception of Hayley. Hayley, you thought they were Mummy's and realized they are dead and then thought I was going to be dead because I'm a Mummy. You were in quite the panic and we had to tell you the mummies weren't real.
Some other favorites were the sea turtle skeleton, the butterfly pavilion and the ocean area. You were all troopers, it was a long day with a lot of walking. We checked into our hotel after the museum, before heading to dinner. We were all ravenous and stuffed our faces at a local brewpub. Once back in the hotel room, after Hayley had a meltdown about the sleeping in the pack n play (I think those days are over), we all crashed.
Before heading home to celebrate New Year Eve we stopped in Georgetown for a very late breakfast/early dinner. I think you all fell asleep in the car on the way home which was great as with it being NYE you all needed some extra rest.
It was a great birthday celebration and adventuring with you kids is by favorite thing to do!
