We took the girls last year and this year we were excited to meet Nana and Pap Pap (Ben's parents) out there. We met up at Red Robin for lunch and then headed to the museum for a few hours of fun and exploring!
Not sure why these photos are a little blurry (sorry)
The girls wanted pictures on the cheeseburger seats
And they wanted a photo with Dad too!
We did the observation tower first.
These are some view from the tower.
The tower off in the distance is the ATC tower at Dulles International Airport
Caroline wanted her picture with Neil Armstrong :)
The girls loved seeing all the different types of helicopters
This plane is the only one in the museum from Pearl Harbour
(it wasn't at the museum last time we were there)
This plane was an unarmed utility craft that was sent up to search for the enemy.
It's current condition is from years of being stored outside.

The girls were able to "fly" a Wright-brothers plane simulator
Getting instructions
Taking off!
Flying through the air :)
Time to land
Family photo before we left
The rest of the weekend was spent with the girls convincing
Nana and Pap Pap to play candy land as many times as possible.
Sunday morning we went to brunch at Copperwood Tavern in Shrilington.
It is a farm-to-table restaurant and everything was delicious!!
The food was AMAZING and I forgot to take more pictures.
I started with this apple cider bellini and it was excellent!
We had the duck eggs as a started and I highly recommend them!
I had the chicken and waffles for my entree and they were super good (better than Texas).
She wanted a selfie and then refused to smile :)
Happy Tuesday y'all!
