Easter Sunday, Neighborhood Reunion, JROTC Military Ball, Christian's Soccer

We spent Easter Sunday in Washington D.C. We had a picnic with some friends right by the Reflecting Pool. It was a gorgeous day!

After our picnic, we walked down under the Cherry Blossoms along the Potomac River. Most trees were still in bloom, but they were beginning to loose the flowers and won't be pretty for much longer. It was the perfect day to go into the District.



We then walked over to the Jefferson Memorial, which we had never visited before. It was really neat.

This was the view looking through the Cherry Blossoms.


This is why they call it the reflecting pool!

Ben's Granparents lived on Franklin Street in Hopewell, VA. Yesterday, all of the families that lived there forever, got together for a very nice picnic/reunion in Colonial Heights, VA.

Christian had his Military Ball last weekend and he asked us to chaparone. The kids really did a great job putting it all together and had a great time. We had a nice chicken dinner and then they danced the night away!
