A-Tripping We Will Go, Part II: The Museums and Folklife Festival

The American History museum is closed so part of their collection is housed in the Air and Space museum. Chase was very excited to find R2D2! (And Dorothy's Ruby Slippers, but that picture didn't turn out so well!!)

In the Virginia exhibit Matt's Alma Mater made an authentic "burned out" canoe. The kids were able to take oyster shells to help scrape out the inside of the canoe.

Chase in the Discovery Center at the Museum of Natural History. We were able to also see "Rexy", but sadly enough our Museum of Natural History does not have an Atilla the Hun exhibit! (for anyone who is lost, go rent "Night at the Museum")
Getting a little sweltery at the Folklife Festival. In this photo are Shelly and her girls, sleeping Chase, Delainey, and Braden. We had a great time, but were glad to enjoy the air conditioning on the metro trip home!!
