We left for the metro at 9:30am and got to the White House by 10:30, and then we waited in line for 2 hours to get into the lawn. So by then it was already half way through our time slot of 11:30 - 1:30pm, so we only had one hour left and every activity on the lawn had a HUGE line to participate. Luckily they had performances that weren't as popular so we stayed busy and happy. Chick would have been happy being there for the first 30 minutes, but then I pushed her to stay the whole time and she was SO TIRED when we left.
Chick got her special White House Easter Egg (people collect them since they are different each year) and within seconds she had thrown it onto the street since she was so grumpy and tired, lol. I gave it back to her and she threw it again. I just thought it was funny since people are so serious about the eggs and ours was all scratched up so fast.

You made it! The pictures look adorable! I love the picture with the princess and the shoes. I'm sad that we couldn't have been there together. I'm sure my kids would have cheered her up in line (unless they were fighting with each other, which is entirely possible!) I'm so sad that they changed everything so much this year. :(
I'm so glad you got to go. Your photos are great. Sophia also loved the egg chair, she didn't want to get out of it. We waiting 90 mins. to get in and then had about 90 to wander around. So crazy, but worth the it.
Wow, look how close you were to the White House!! It looked like you guys had fun! Funny that she threw the egg in the road and kept cutting in line to get to the egg chair:)

How fun!! I thought you didn't get the tickets? That's great that you did. I LOVE how Chick's shoes Matched the princess's--so exciting. And that you'd run away when she cut in line--that cracks me up:)

That is so great you were able to get tickets! I love the pic in the egg chair. Too cute! And a trip to Cooperstown? Fun!
haha, I love that you acted like she wasn't your kid when she cut in line, hilarious. Your photos are so beautiful, I especially love the princess pictures. I'm glad you got to go, especially after your whole TV news moment! :) Looks like next year I'll have to play die-hard in front of the computer for 6 hours straight to get our man in!
