Thanksgiving in DC

This Thanksgiving we decided to head over to Washington DC to visit Shae's parents. They are on a mission at the DC temple. We are really excited to see them and celebrate the holiday with family. When we arrived we gave Marlee and nap and then headed out for a little pre-Thanksgiving shopping and a wonderful dinner and my favorite: The Cheesecake Factory!
On Thursday we decided to hit the Zoo (it's free by the way). We got there right as it opened and were able to see everything with the normal zoo crowd. It was cold but very fun. Thanks to my good friend Melissa we had a double stroller to help us.


The girls (especially Rhaegan) were so excited to see all the animals. Marlee was waiting patiently for the elephant exhibit.

This bridge extends all the way across the elephants. Luckily one of the elephants was out.


The best part of the whole thing was getting to see the panda (or Po from Kung Fu panda). As you can see from the pictures below he was extremely close. He was so cute.

This was just the first 24 hours of our trip. More pictures to come...
