We've had a very special week. The youngest two boys are visiting their cousins in Ohio for the whole week. We ADORE the little ones, but it has felt like a vacation in many respects. I know they're having a blast at their Aunt Charlotte & Uncle Chris', so it makes missing them not so intense. But while the cats are away, the mice will play. So we've had our fair share of playing school and one of the highlights was visiting the International Spy Museum.
The production level of the museum was really impressive. We entered in and picked out alternate identities that we had to take pictures memorize the details of. This is my spy face...while blinking.
Then through the whole museum, details were added to our cover stories and we tracked to see if we could retain the info and pass with our covers. Pretty cool.
They also had a ton of hands on stuff.
William operating underwater sonar.
We also learned about the Enigma machine. They had a fantastic interactive console to see how the device worked and to actually code-break a message.

As we headed back to our car we passed Ford's Theatre. Worthy's in the throws of Civil War history so this was another added treat. The house where Lincoln died is across the street so we got to see that too.
A really fun (stroller free) day.
