We went on a short vacation a couple of weekends ago up to Virginia! Jacob and Allison live up there with their two little ones Olivia and Reed. We drove up on Friday and drove back down on Sunday. I'm not going to lie, it made for a super long weekend, but a super fun one too. Jacob graduated from a Masters Program at George Mason and so Matthew's parent's were visiting the same time we were. It was so much fun to see everyone.
On Saturday, we walked around Washington DC. I have too many pictures of the places we went, so I'm doing them in installments. We saw the Washington Monument first thing.
Since the earthquake last year damaged the monument, no one is allowed inside anymore. They're actually not sure if it will ever be sturdy enough to have tourists go up to the top.
Lily, Olivia, William.
I will tell you now, there is nothing like seeing memorials for our founding fathers or for soldiers who have served our country and died for out country.
Next: World War II Memorial.

So cool! I never knew you could go inside. Opportunity missed. DANG. Oh yeah, Matt is such a dork.
Glad y'all were able to go. It looks like a great place to visit. We were going to take the kids to D.C. And then there were random shootings going on in the area so we quickly changed our minds. I would still love to take them sometime.
