Smithsonian Museum/ Mt. Vernon

On our way to Williamsburg, we stopped in Washington DC to visit the Smithsonian National Musuem of Natural History. The boys loved all of the animals, especially the dinosaurs. I loved seeing the 45.52-carat Hope Diamond and the other gems.

We also spent some time out at Mount Vernon, the estate of George and Martha Washington.

The kids stop to pose with George and Martha.
