Black History Month in DC

In celebration of Black History month the boys and I visited some important sites in DC.

Here they are on the steps of Fredrick Douglas's house in SE.

We didn't do the inside tour - need there be an explanation?
At the visitors Center Isaac tried to shake hands with Fred.

We then visited the Smithsonian Museum in Anacostia
The Boys loved this hands-on display of paper doll magnets
Hmmm,the Cook boys and paper dolls, you ask?
They were mostly interested in throwing all the magnets on the floor.
The goal always being to destroy!!

A park across the steet could not be passed without some play time

Near our own church is this historic church. You can read about it on the sign.
And no Daniel did not wet his pants that's from his no-spill sippy cup.

Near the Capitol biulding, a few blocks from our house, is another museum for Mr. Douglas
There were many more sites but we'll save them for next Feburary.
