I had to work Christmas this year (since I got out of working Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's last year because I was on maternity leave!), so we went out to Virginia a couple of days after Christmas to see my sister and her family. My parents flew out from Colorado to meet us there. Sophie loved seeing her cousin, Micah. They had so much fun playing together (and getting into mischief together!)
Micah's favorite show is Wheel of Fortune. It's the cutest thing because he claps and gets really excited!! Sophie couldn't help but join in!
We celebrated Mike and mom's birthdays with some yummy cheesecake! For those of you who don't know, my brother-in-law, Reed, plays for the Washington Redskins. We got to see his game against Dallas (the one that got them into the playoffs!) Before the game, my parents got me and Mike #37 jersey's! We all had to pose with #37 himself!
This picture was taken in the player's parking lot (we parked our Honda Accord next to all of their Bentley's and BMW's). It was pretty cool to see some of the players arriving at the game!
It was rainy and freezing!! We had to cover up our jerseys with our heavy coats!
Reed knew where our seats were, so when the team ran out before the game, he turned and pointed up at us!! Mike and I were fighting over who he was pointing at (I'm almost positive that he was pointing at me!)
After the gameWe celebrated our Christmas on New Year's Eve
Aren't they the cutest couple?Speaking of cute couples...
This is on the Stone Bridge at Bull Run. We took a driving tour of the battlefield.
We also went to the Air and Space Museum...Mike was very excited!!
This is the first 707 (which is the plane that Mike flies!)
Sophie wants to be an astronaut when she grows up!
Sophie enjoying a pickle at the airport on the way home (this picture looks like she didn't like it, but she actually ate almost all of it!)We had so much fun visiting everyone! Thanks for the great vacation!
Happy New Year!
