Washington DC

 


We went to Washington DC to see Matt's sister get married. It was a very quick trip but we managed to squeeze in a little sight seeing. We got there very late on a Thur night and flew back Sunday afternoon. We took the metro (something that was an experience all on it's own) into DC to see the monuments. Since we didn't have very much time we didn't go to any of the museums. We saw the Lincoln Memorial, the washington monumnent (that's Jackson in the orange shirt touching it), and the WWII memorial. We drove by the white house for a quick peek but didn't take any pictures. As you can see, Maggie and Hailey, crashed for the monument tour. Jackson was tired - it was a lot of walking - but he did really well and enjoyed the monuments.

Aren't they cute? Doesn't it take you back to your wedding day? It was a lot of fun to go to a wedding. The kids loved seeing Kami in her "married" dress. It was also great to see all of Matt's siblings together and for the little ones to see all of their cousins on that side of the family. There are eight of them with Jackson being the oldest. We stayed at a rental house that was big enough for all of us. It was chaos but so fun to be so close to everyone for such a busy trip.




Jackson started kindergarten the day after we got back from DC - these posts are a little out of order......
