Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween everyone! Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. Griffin will be dressing up like Bob The Builder. It's kind of a homemade costume. I will take some pictures tonight and share them tomorrow. I'm so excited because Mike will be home. This is the first Halloween he's been home since moving to Virginia. We plan to hand out candy and then a little later go to the "Trunk or Treat" at the local church. I took G there last year but he was only 8 months old and didn't quite get it yet. This year I just know he will have alot of fun.

I want to thank my girlfriends for being so supportive about the hair situation. Yesterday afternoon Mike colored my hair and I cut his. It was a regular hair salon here. Mike took some pictures of me, but they did not turn out that well, so I will have him take some more tonight (with makeup on) and share them tomorrow as well.

The other day when we went to the National Zoo in Washington, DC I took some pictures of the city. I thought it would be fun to share them with you. It's a view of DC from the car.

I loaded the pictures pretty small, so you can just click on them to see them bigger.


We are about to cross the Potomac heading into the city. If you look closely you can see a helicopter. Mike is convinced this was the President. You can see the Washington Memorial in the background


The Pentagon


The new Air Force Memorial. I was surprised to see it so far out of the city. It's HUGE ... maybe it's located so far away because it's so big

The Washington Memorial


Pennsylvania Avenue ... one of the most famous address in the world


The Lincoln Center
