Wonderful Weekend

Even though, I missed the quilt yesterday we made the best of a cool day in DC.  We visited the American and Natural History museums at the Smithsonian.  Then, we walked down to the White House, which I'd never seen.  All in all it was a pretty great day.

These photographs were taken by amateur nature photographers and displayed at the Natural History Museum.  We amused ourselves by captioning them.

"Oh, ugh...this is gonna hurt..."

 "Seriously?"

 "Cheese!"

"Look Ma, No Hands!"

The White House: I kept expecting Josh, CJ, and President Bartlett to walk through the gates.. : ) 

 

 

Oh, Kermie 

 Michele Obama's Inaugural Gown: Gorgeous!

 My favorite Doisneau photograph

 The first set of Jim Henson's puppets: So cool that you can see the beginnings of his famous characters.  Little green dude looks a lot like Oscar the Grouch and the guy behind him looks like Ernie.  And of course, Kermie hasn't changed much.

Today started with Brunch.  Then I found an amazing new Scrapbook store which I'm sure will cost me some money.  Finally, I made a delicous (even if I do say so myself: ) dinner inspired by Pinterest.  Unfortunately, I was in such a rush to get everything out on time, I forgot to take pics so you'll just need to visit here, here, here, and here to get the general idea. 

Another, fabulous but all too short weekend.  Here's to a wonderful week!
