Air and Space Muesum

I feel so terribly bad that I haven't kept up to date on the blog. It's been harder these days with Courtney working nites and it's hard to find any down time with McKaila always wanting to play. She is keeping me busy during the days and nites that's for sure, but I wouldn't change it for the world. I could be terribly tired and not want to do anything but sit around, I look at that beautiful smile of McKaila's and I can't help but get up and play around with her. She has the most amazing laugh and who could resist that??
So, yesterday we went out to Virginia because Courtney's cousin Brooke was in town. The company that she works for was having a cook out and were nice enough to invite us. Thankfully it had cooled down some so it made for a beautiful day! It was great getting to catch up with Brooke. We haven't seen her in a few years, so it was great seeing her again. And she was really excited to finally meet McKaila. We only got a couple hours together, but it was nice to be around all the nice people and eat some good food.
We then decided to go to the Air and Space Muesum since it was about 10 miles from where we were and we've been wanting to go for a while now. So this was a great chance to finally go. Courtney was researching our trip there and found out that after 4 it was free parking, so it was pretty entertaining when we arrived 15 minutes early. We found out we weren't the only ones that wanted to save the $15 to park.
We had so much fun walking around. Courtney knew a lot about most of the planes ofcoarse, so it was a bit of a learning expierence for me. McKaila did so well too. As long as there is plenty to see, she is very content. We even got the chance to go up in the observation tower. 7 stories high and you had a full view of everything around you. You could see the mountians and Dulles Airport. While we were up there 2 planes flew by to land, so that was really fun to see.
All in all, it was a great day!!! We took many, many pictures of our time in the Muesum, but here are a few of our favorites!!
