Bruce's Sister and her Family Visit Northern Virginia


They arrived on June 28th and were here until July 5th. Bobbie became tour guide trying to make a busy few days fun for everyone.

Their first day took them to the US Capital Building.

The girls are pictured here by the Capital Women's Memorial.
