Monday

We went to ESPNZone for breakfast and game playing. All of the kids had a blast. Danny was especially thrilled to play air hockey with Alison!

Part of the program there included Miss America singing a Disney princess song - what a lovely voice. Then the mascot bird-creature from the Washington Nationals dropped in. He invited everyone to the game on Wed night! Then Mark Wills sang some songs. He was terrific!!

After more game time, we came back to the hotel for a bus tour. That was nice to share with the other families and WalMart folks. One WalMart man from Tennessee (William) carried Danny around for a little while. Danny really liked him, and it was very helpful to us!! The WalMart folks that are here are so friendly and helpful. You can tell what a priority CMN is to the WalMart organization...

At the hotel, we had the chance to meet Mark Wills and get a picture. He saw that we were from GA, and was happy to meet us. Turns out he's from near Atlanta too, and his wife is friends with someone in our subdivision. She had followed Alison's story way back in 2004!

After the bus tour, we went to the Air and Space Museum to tour individually. We closed down that museum, and then walked over to the Natural History Museum. Then we dragged ourselves back to the hotel and ordered room service! We were exhausted after such a full day!
So, we went swimming and collapsed...

Alright - can't upload pictures here. Will try again later - for sure when I get home.
