My world traveler is home

Katie returned last night from a week and a half trip to Washington DC and Rome, Italy. I know I'll need to explain. Last year my dad finished his second career a s a flight attendant and so they fly for free. They enjoy their travel and have promised the grandchildren to take them on an international trip. This year was Katie's turn.

She was in DC for the celebration of Lincoln's 200th birthday. She saw President Obama flying overhead in Marine 1. And the Pope walked right in front of them in the Vatican square. She'll have these memories for a lifetime. I'll post some of her travel journal entries later but tonight I'm going to share some of the pictures from her trip.

What a cool gift!! Katie is going to be the talk of her school and family for quite some time. How do I become a sibbling.
