Visit with Uncle Mike!


My brother Michael came to DC with the Junior Presidential Youth Inaugural Conference (http://www.cylc.org/JrPYIC/). We were lucky enough to have him come a day early to hang out with us first! Since it was way too cold to go to Annapolis (our original idea), we went to the Marine Corps Museum at Quantico (http://www.usmcmuseum.com/index.asp) and then hiked down to Fredricksburg, VA, to eat at Sonic (a family favorite, and there aren't any near us!).
We thought it appropriate that this is the name of the statute outside the museum.
Christopher's favorite Marine quote, engraved forever on the wall in the museum with other memorable quotes.

Alexandra and I coming out of the inside of a submarine (I think it was a submarine). She did so well at the museum! I know she had fun looking at everything (so many lights and colorful things there). We now have high hopes of taking her to other museums in the area.

Dropping Mike off at his hotel at the end of the day. I've also posted a photo of Mike and I when he was here with the Congressional Youth Leadership Council three years ago (February 2006). Look at how much taller than me he is now!
