Summer Rainbows

It's hot in DC. But the Smithsonian museums are wonderfully air conditioned, free, and have great spaces to run around in.

The Museum of the American Indian has an especially great entrance if you are under the age of five and feel like dancing around in public view.

Best of all are the huge rays of sunlight the building catches and filters through gigantic prisms. If you find the right spot, you can make yourself into a life size rainbow.

Rainbow Reuben

Rainbow Miriam

Reuben - does this come off?

A big thanks goes out to Aunt Heather for letting us subject her to our DC trek. Reuben wanted to make sure she got a good introduction to each of the faces.

When we aren't in DC, we are our usual crazy selves. This picture is pure Miriam. She put those necklaces on herself. She found them herself too. I didn't even know we owned 2 necklaces.

Miri is agile. She can crawl into the wading pool by herself. Getting out before Reuben realizes she's in there is more of a trick.
