US History Trip

We look pretty ragged. This is Gettysburg, our last stop, and we look like we are worn out. Gettysburg was one of our favorites. The battle fields have a reverence about them. This is the new visitor center that we all loved. Jameson wore his beloved star fanny pack the whole trip. People didn't know how to take him. This picture caught Brynlee with her scowl. She only did that the first day we were there and then she warmed up to us just fine.
We all loved Washington DC. What a beautiful city with so much to see and so little time to see it. Can you tell we ran through a down pour to get to the Lincoln Monument? It was bigger than I remembered as a child. That doesn't happen very often.
This was Jameson's and Braiden's favorite part of the trip. The tour guide couldn't believe this was their first time on a Segway. They were naturals. He could believe it was Nicole's first time though. Caleb, Brynlee, and I stayed home and watched a DVD. We'll do it next time when Caleb is 16.
Nice photography Nicole!

This was our first stop, Philadelphia. It was full of history but I'm afraid we will remember it for it's heat. It was 100 degrees and 100 humidity. Don't worry, we watched "National Treasure" the night before we left.
