| Ready for Family Star Wars Day | 
 Saturday was 
all about Star Wars, which you can read about over here on 
What We Ate.
Then, we took a long walk:
|  | 
| Looking for something interesting. | 
|  | 
| Some kind of hawk. | 
|  | 
| Sketching the hawk. | 
We walked through some neighborhoods we've never visited before, and saw some interesting things:   
|  | 
| Somebody's hitching post. | 
|  | 
| The Big Bad Wolf's house? | 
|  | 
| Yard Art. | 
 | 
 | 
On Sunday, Daphne and I had a sleepover in Manassas, and on Monday, Uncle Jeff took us to Mount Vernon to celebrate President's Day at George Washington's house.  Daphne even earned a Girl Scout patch.
|  | 
| The General addresses the crowd. | 
|  | 
| The soldiers prepare to charge. | 
|  | 
| Daphne and the General | 
|  | 
| The President's mansion. | 
|  | 
| Plus, there was this giant pig. | 
And we got to spend a lot of time with this good little puppy dog:
|  | 
| Scout. | 
|  | 
| Teaching Scout some self-control. | 
|  | 
| The good puppy. | 
A good weekend, but now Daphne is sick.  Too much President's Day partying.  I think today we'll rest on the couch and watch a good movie.  Perhaps there will be knitting.
Happy Mardi Gras!
