I love our fall trips to Maryland. I love the cool air, the fall leaves, seeing my sister and her family, seeing my kids playing in piles of leaves, riding the metro into the city...okay okay, I love it all!
This year we were out there for Halloween. We were able to trick or treat with cousins. They had a great time and made a huge haul of Halloween candy!
We stayed with our friends the Beverleys who moved to Virgina a couple years back. We went on a walk thorough some civil war areas.
Craig picked up this little walking stick friend.
I love the sight of leaves falling like rain. We love to run and try to catch the leaves as they fall. It is trickier than you might think....those leaves can be quite wily.
The kids played in the woods by the Beverleys house and caught critters in the stream. Look at that crawdad! My kids could get lost out there forever...and of course I would worry forever that they are picking up deer ticks.
This is a church near Valley Forge
There was beautiful stained glass everywhere. I loved the depiction of Washington praying
These were cabins at Valley Forge
One of our favorite places to visit is the National Arboretum in Washington D.C. There is a koi pond with hundreds of koi fish.
The Bonsai tress are so interesting and old. There are some that are hundreds of years old!
