Washington D.C. Trip

We had so much fun on our trip to visit Rich and Eileen's family in D.C. It was one of the best trips- if not the best- We've ever had!!!  We got to meet baby Lucas:)  Josh's closest boy cousin.   We got to see so many cool things and spend a lot of time with our family.  Rich and Eileen were so good to us.  They let us use their car every day and fed us and took such good care of us!!! We had such a hard time coming home!!!






This was the first Memorial we went to and probably my favorite



Abraham Lincoln Memorial


So we took this picture of Josh and Abraham Lincoln- cute right!!!

So... A group of Koreans thought so too.  They started taking pictures with Josh and calling him a superstar.  This went on for a good 5 min or so.  Doesn't sound too long, but it is.  It was funny but quite embarrassing.  All the Americans were confused I'm sure.


Where Martin Luther King gave his I HAVE A DREAM speech- on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial




Washington Memorial- see the changes in color of the stone?  Apparently they stopped building it during the Civil War and started up again several years later.



FDR Memorial- Josh's favorite.  There are several waterfalls- Josh loved them

Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial

Josh and Lucas:)  Josh loved Lucas and was always trying to get him.  Poor kid.lol.  He'll be more fun in a few months.

Jefferson Memorial

The Zoo- it's free!!!  Josh LOVED the monkeys


Can you tell by his face? haha.  It doesn't look like it, but he was amazed by the monkeys


Mount Vernon.  Beautiful!!!  I wish I could live there.  The one thing we paid to go into.  It was well worth it.

Farmyard animals


Josh was very sad

Josh took his naps all kinds of funny places.  Such a wonderful little guy!!!

Rich and Livvy



Washington Memorial and the White House.  We toured the White House, but Weren't able to bring cameras, strollers, bags, really anything there, so this is all we have.

Jefferson Memorial


The White House


The box President Lincoln was sitting in.  It was decorated this way when he was shot.  Picture of George Washington hanging.

The Washington D.C. Temple!!!  Such a beautiful Temple!!!  Josh's first time to the temple:)
