We woke up last Wednesday morning with the impulsive idea to drive down to D.C. and visit MrD's cousin and her 2 adorable little girls, but first of course we had to check with our cousin since this was completely unplanned and unexpected.
Text messages went as follows:
me: hi! what r u doing this w/e? want visitors?
cuz: sure! just hanging with the 2 girls (her hubby is on the campaign trail and was in Minnesota gearing up for the big convention)
me: great! see u tomorrow!
THE easiest family trip I've ever had to plan!
The White House
at the Washington Monument
Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History
(diggs likes dinosaurs)!
National Zoological Park
(with the 4 kids plus a playdate)!
We had family fun, history lessons, yummy food, and lots of exercise from all the walking. What more could you want from a spontaneous road trip?! Great way to round out the summer!
