Yesterday afternoon we took the metro downtown to the National Museum of Natural History for their Orchid Family Festival. Logan and Carsyn enjoyed crafts and learning all about orchids. Unfortunately, Maren always falls asleep on the train and missed most of the festivities. But, she woke up in time to go exploring around the dinosaur and Africa exhibits. The girls loved it. They have really become big fans of the Smithsonian Institution. Afterward we took the metro up to DuPont Circle for dinner at Buca's...one of our favorites! It's always easy to over-eat there. I guess it makes up for the Ash Wednesday fasting. What a fun night!
Little artists...
Maren woke up just in time for the woolly mammoth...
The girls, hungry and ready to go eat...
Outside the museum...
We're stuffed...
Today we've been taking it easy. We are anxious to see whether or not we get the 4-8 inches of snow they're predicting for tonight. Could be another snow day tomorrow...check back tomorrow and see...
