Virginia is for Lovers: Day One

Our adventure began on a Monday evening at the Long Beach Airport. We departed around 10:30 and my plan was to sleep the ENTIRE flight. I even took some dramamine to knock me out. Unfortunately, my plan backfired and I was awake for most of the flight, which left me with nothing to do but browse infomercials. I saw a couple funny ones like Body Gospel .

We finally landed at Washington, Dulles at 6:00 AM and arrived in Ashburn around 6:30. Jonathan and I were exhausted, so we took a nap for a while but eventually woke up to play with 3 beautiful little munchkins:



There's nothing I love more than little newborns who let you cuddle with them all day long. In addition to cuddling with baby Mi Na Anne, we played hello animals and read a Dr. Seuss book entitled, "Put Me in the Zoo." It's a good one and I highly recommend it. But I'm sure by the end of this trip I'll have it memorized, so I can just tell you the story.

After the kids went to bed, Jonathan and I went for a little run and enjoyed the unusually cool Virginia air as the sun set. We even spotted some fireflies while we were stretching. They're amazing.
