Details of a cross-country family adventure.
| February 3, 2005: Abigail and her parents went to Washington DC! Here she is on the plane on her way there.
|
She did great on the plane!
|
| February 4, 2005: Abigail got up early to meet her Great Grandpapa at Aunt Ingrid's house. She did her usual tricks for Great Grandpapa: blowing raspberries, rolling over and "talking." He was impressed, of course!

Notice how all three have the same sticky-up hair?

This was taken right before they made us move on because of "movement at the White House" - whatever THAT means!

| February 5, 2005: We got to see the "first dog" playing on the lawn. We aren't sure of the name of this dog, but one of the security people told us its name is Martin.

Can you see the brown smudge that is the "first dog"?

This is as close as they could get because it was all walled off for repairs.

A California Girl at heart!
