Meeting the President

Thanks to a connected Grandpa we were able to attend a holiday party at the Blair House. The Blair House is home to visiting chiefs of state and heads of government while they are in Washington. In essences its the president's guest house.



Look Who I got to shake hands with!

It was a great day!

Her first "real" roller coaster ride. She started saying "I'm done, I'm done..." about half way through. Afterwards she told me, "I'll try it again when I'm 15 or 9 years old."
