field trip

I took Bowman and Tenney on a bike ride/picnic in August 2010 along the GW parkway in Alexandria, VA they said that they had rode bikes there but only as far as Belle Haven Marina.That is not far from them. It was so beautiful and peaceful riding a bike along a bike path right by the Potomac River. Bowman complained A LOT about everything and anything that she was bored... and this that and other stuff...she was so annoyed about everything. I said there is not going to be that much more good weather left in 2010 and we need to take advantage of it while we can.

We stopped for a park at a place called Morningside Park.

We made it all the way to Mt.Vernon which is COMPLETELY COMMERCIALIZED NOW...they have a food court and two gift stores there now. I got the girls some fries and some nachos. There mom said that they are allowed the fries but no nachos in the future.

We rode back much nicer ride back and went home. That took up most of our day. It was really cool

I look so forward to being a mom and a wife and doing fun stuff with my husband and family.. I am a bit scared of how much more commercialized Mt.Vernon will be in the next 10-15 years though...
