We spent a wet, cold President’s Day at Mount Vernon. It was a fantastic family trip and we can’t wait to go back! Kate Best, 2018

I took this picture of my then 13-year-old daughter on our first ever trip to Mount Vernon on a very chilly April day in 2018. Barb Gusway, 2018

We brought our two daughters (ages 12 & 18) to Washington D.C.in April 2018 to see all of the highlights the area has to offer, as we all love American History. Mount Vernon has always been a must-see when my husband and I have visited D.C. in the past, so it was a must for our girls. It captured our hearts to see where the Father of our country lived, to see all of the new renovations, and tour the incredible visitor's center with the amazing "Be Washington Interactive Theatre".
We even purchased additional tickets for the "National Treasure Tour" which added some mystery, new facts and gave us a personal connection to the estate. We had a gem of a guide who well-versed in her knowledge of history but also very entertaining to boot! Thank you for preserving Mt. Vernon, where we can all feel so patriotically inspired and empowered by just visiting this magnificent American landmark! Cathy Rudmann, 2018

My selfie from July 4th, 2018. I was on a 2 week road trip with a friend from middle school and her two young daughters. This was my fourth time to visit the estate, but it was their first visit. We visited DC over the July 4th holiday. We spent the day at Mount Vernon and I was able to watch a naturalization ceremony for new US citizens. It was really special to see all of those people so excited to become American citizens. One man was smiling from ear to ear as he was welcomed by a young couple. I remember thinking that George would probably be proud that this was happening at his estate. Kristin Reedy, 2018

We visited Mount Vernon on our way back from a beach trip with extended family including grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins. This picture is the set of cousins. They had a blast running and playing in the back yard of Mount Vernon! Katie Seifried, 2018

We regularly visit Mount Vernon and are so appreciative of the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association and all that they have done, and are doing, to preserve, restore, and manage the estate. It's difficult to choose our favorite time of the year to visit, but our daughter especially loves to visit during the Christmas season so she can see Aladdin the camel. Here is a photo of her with her two Aladdins! Ken Rodriguez, 2018
