Washington D.C. Trip II

Last weekend we took our second trip out to the D.C. area and hoped to be able to find a place to live by the time we came back. We found a few places we liked, applied, and got the e-mail when we landed back in Ontario that we got our #1 choice of townhouse! It's located in the Fairlington area of Arlington, VA and we move in early June. That's next month!

This time we had a lot of help with Julia. Our sweet sister-in-law, Ellen, came down from Philadelphia to watch Julia while Robert and I house hunted. It was so nice to be able to look around without having to entertain Julia.Julia and I with the Wright Brothers plane

We were also able to do a fair amount of site seeing in between house hunting. We even met up with Robert's cousin, Jared, and his family who also live in Virginia. We met up with them at Great Falls State Park and had a delicious BBQ dinner.Robert, Julia, and I at the falls
