Washington D. C.

Last week, we took the Bukers to Washington before they headed out. It was so nice to be able to go to Washington for once and see something besides the Air & Space Museum. Every time I have been to Washington that is where I have gone. There are so many more exciting things to see, besides airplanes and spaceships. We tried to cram in as much as we possible could. We were exhausted by the end of the day, but it was a fun trip.

The Bukers


The Library of Congress





The Capitol






Our state's statue












Arlington National Cemetery









We were able to see our great-grandparents grave sites for the first time, which are on either side of us.



The Lincoln Memorial



The end of the day...













On the way back to the Metro station, we walked by the White House. We are pretty certain that we saw the President out taking a walk with his family. Joanna was very excited about this and is still talking about how we saw the President. I just wish it had been a different one, but it was still kind of cool.
