On March 27th we attended the 44th Annual Smithsonian Kite Festival in Washington, D.C. We live pretty close to D.C. but we do not go that often but the kite festival was an excuse to get the kids out of the house for a road trip. We hung out near the Monument for a while and the kids got to fly their kites and we got to see some kites being flown. After we were done at the Kite Festival we decided to take the metro over to Arlington, VA for a tour of the cemetery. This was the kids’ first trip on public transportation and they did well. While at Arlington we got to see the changing of the guard which is such an honor to watch. All in all we had a great day in DC, the weather was great and we had a very nice day together as a family.
