Sorry for the lack of posts. I can't believe it has been over a month since I posted last. We are keeping busy I guess.
My best friend from Alaska came to visit up last week. We had lots of fun and she did a lot of shopping LOL. On Thursday David had the day off and told Erica and I to go have fun. We already toured DC the first day she got in but we had the kids and the weather was getting yucky. We really wanted to ride segways so we found a segway tour and it was a blast. We had so much fun riding them. Plus, we got to see all the things that we didn't get to see before. I am not the best tour guide and Ken did a great job explaining everything to us. Very informational and we felt so cool riding these things :)
At first, it was kind of scary getting on it. They show a video before you practice and the video had people falling and hitting their heads and how easy it was to fall. We got pretty scared but we survived. In the middle I was even texting while segwaying LOL. Don't worry I was safe. I only texted David to ask how the kids were. Erica and I didn't fall at all. We are professional segwayists now. All in all we had a great visit. Thanks again Erica.
We were so cool in our pink helmets :) We were the only ones wearing the pink ones. Everyone else had black or white.

The people in my group. The lady in the pink shirt was crazy on her segway. She fell off once and would go fast and then really slow. It was hard to be behind her when going single file. The funny thing is her husband (to her right, our left) was always at the front of the line and left his wife in the back. I think he was tired of her going to slow. LOL.
