Over general conference weekend we decided to drive down to Washington DC to see Jon, Kristi and Judah. Good thing we did too because we found out they are moving back to Seattle for the summer. Our intention was to go see the cherry blossoms, as it was the cherry blossom festival but the weather didn't really cooperate with us... oh well. We had a lot of fun visiting museums and of course playing with baby Judah, or baby "Ju Ju" as Lily called him most of the trip! I was going to break up the pictures into different posts but I am too lazy so here is everything :)
At the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History:
The Dinosaurs were Mason's favorite... this is "Rudy" (from Ice Age 3)
The next Day we went to the National Air and Space Museum:
The museums were alot of fun except there were SO MANY PEOPLE. I thought I was going to have a panic attack. I don't like crowds and being hot. It was worth it though because Mason and Lily both had a great time!
After we went outside when it finally stopped raining, here is Kristi buying a hotdog, Judah is asleep in the sling under her sweatshirt. Mason and Lily both got a popcicle (I had to bribe Mason to use the bathroom with a popcicle!)
Showing me that he ate the eyes off his sponge bob popcicle!
They are so cute when they play nice together!
The next day we went to the zoo. Again it was super crowded but at least we were in fresh air outside! There was a cute baby gorilla that was super cute!
We didn't see the cherry blossoms but we did get to see alot of magnolia trees!
Haha, I just thought this was funny :)
After the zoo we stopped by a little garden to get some family pictures of the Merrill family. Lily is of course a great test subject, and a great stick locator!
It was ironic that Mason and Lily don't like me to take their picture, but when I am taking pictures of other people they all the sudden want all of the attention. "Take a picture of me mom, look I am doing this take a picture, I want to see mom...."
Here is one from the session with my sweet nephew Judah!
Look at this BIIIIG stick mom!
Danny with his smallest nephew
And some attempts to get the cousins together! Haha, Judah I am sorry :) Lily is of course obsessed with babies and loved to hug and play with Judah all weekend. He mostly liked it...
Oh and for anyone who wants to see I put up some pictures of their family session on my new photography blog and my photography facebook page.
