Miss Charlotte Goes to Washington

Two weeks ago, we packed up Miss Charlotte for her first Cross-Country flight to go visit Annapolis, MD. Despite our fears, she flew like a seasoned jet-setter and slept the whole way there and back.

Here is the face she made when we told her she was going on an airplane.
Charley got to spend lots of quality time with Chris and Laura Van Syckle, her sponsor-grandparents. Laura, of course, did her laundry and let her sleep on the couch.

Here is Charley taking in the Nation's Capital and the National Mall. Having been born on Inauguration Day, she has a profound sense of history.

Here she is in the background trying to help her cousin Nick finish a platter of Maryland blue crab.

Here she is as the wheels touch down in San Diego again, happy to be home and near her beloved Mr. Flippy Frog.
