There is nothing better than doing fun, cheap things with your family in great weather.
But first . . . Megan loves stuffed animals. She is now going to bed with 4 or 5 a night. And she gets very excited when she sees them. Including this one: Yes, this is Yoda. I thought he would freak her out, but no. She really liked his toes.
Anyway -- yesterday Chop took the day off and we toured some friends around the Capitol and then went to the zoo. Megan was so good even though she missed her nap and was pretty tired. She loves animals and got a big kick out of the birds and bears and the tiger -- and he roared for us!
The cherry blossoms were out in full force and I was reminded again how much I LOVE DC! I wouldn't want to live there with traffic and stuff but it really is one of my favorite cities. We had such a good time. Then today we went to Chancellorsville battlefield where Stonewall Jackson was shot by his own troops (on accident) and died after the amputation of his arm (which is buried in Spotsylvania -- the arm that is) and then walked around Mary Washington again. It made me miss college a bit -- that was a really great 4 years and Mary Wash is pretty much the prettiest campus this side of wherever.
Megan is getting to the point where she wants to do things and tries to put on socks, jewelry, hats, sunglasses, shoes, etc. She's getting pretty good at it, even if the hat is closed in this one.

I enjoy reading your blog and what a cute little sweetie Megan is...it reminds me of thirtysomething years ago when April came into our lives and the "adventure" began! Your Primary story was great--although you were mortified, it's a story that will bring many laughing memories. Just be glad it happened in Primary and not when you're a Stake Relief Society President! Love, Aunt Shirley Ann
I haven't checked you blog in a while... it is good to see your sweet Megan and get caught up! She is so CUTE! I think she will definitely be a girly girl.
