We will be leaving for vacation one week from tomorrow! Our first stop is in our home town for a family reunion on Saturday afternoon. We will spend the night there and enjoy our Sunday with family. Then we are heading out after dinner to drive half way to Washington DC. We will stop and stay the night somewhere along the way in Virgina. Then we plan on getting up early on Monday and heading into DC for two days of sightseeing!!! We have a tour of the Washington Monument scheduled for Tuesday morning. I am still trying to talk myself into take the elevator as my fear is already setting in...:-( But I see the pictures from the top and it's an experience I don't want to miss out on so I might just have to pull up my bif girl panties and get over it! LOL I also tried to get tickets to tour the white house but I don't think that is going to happen. I have a high school friend working on getting those since the congressmans office couldn't obtain them for us. I guess the tours are very limited since 9/11. I won't let it ruin my trip if we can't go but I know that is something Aiden would love so trying everything in my power to get them!
After our 2 days and nights in DC we will drive up to Hershey, PA to go to Hershey park on Wednesday. I have never been there and always wanted to go so it made sense to make that part of our trip since it's only a few hours north of DC. We will stay the night there Wed then go on the Chocolate World tour on Thursday before heading back to my parents for the weekend. I am going to help my Mom with a garage sale and it's my Dad's Birthday weekend so we will enjoy some more family time before heading back home!
My goal is to try to just relax and enjoy our time as a family, I have a list of things I would like to do and see but, I am limiting myself on expectations!!!!!! As I know, setting any official schedule with two young children would just be foolish! ;-) Wish us luck!
