So I had the opportunity to visit Washington DC again for the second time this year. This time I had a lot more time to sight-see and that I did. I saw everything I wanted to see and more. Here are some pictures to document my journey.
Cooling my feet in the WWII Memorial- this became a common activity whenever I found a fountain because it was super hot!
My brother hanging out with Mr. President at the Obama shop in Union Station- probably not too many of those shops in Texas huh?
Chinese food restaurant I got takeout from in Chinatown. I thought that was really funny!
Touching a moon rock at the Air and Space Museum...I thought the moon was white!
Hanging out behind the Capitol building. I just love this building. I think it is so beautiful!
The White House (if you didn't know). I was excited to see it because the last two times I have been to DC it was covered up. In 3rd grade Clinton was having a reunion on the lawn and had big tents. In January it was the Inauguration and EVERYTHING was closed off!

Driving a mail truck in the Postal Museum which was my favorite museum out of all that I visited. Strange I know.
Hanging out with Roosevelt at the Nationals vs. Rockies game. These were their mascots and I thought they were hilarious/creepy!
Hello Mr. Lincoln. They also had Washington and Jefferson. So crazy! I could not stop laughing at them. Wouldn't want to run into this guy in a dark alley!
And finally- who do you think this is? They were standing and sitting above the stadium the whole game. At first I thought it might be Obama but zooming in with my camera I don't think so. Maybe Whoopie Goldberg?
It was a super fun trip. Thanks for the invite Matthew. I had a blast! I also really enjoyed getting to spend some time with the Falls Church CoC and some of their members. Thanks for your hospitality!
