Toward the end of May we drove down to D.C. for a family wedding. The drive was only about 7 hours (give or take a few stops with little ones). We had a ton of fun site seeing and spending time with family. It is amazing to visit the sites and learn more of the history of how our nation began.
In the picture where I am holding an angry Madison she was frustrated that I wouldn't let her walk down the very wet and slippery stairs of the Lincoln memorial. Seeing the monuments was not among Madison's favorite memories:) Both girls did extremely well site seeing considering
the fact that naps often are short or non-existent when you are on the go. Luckily Emerie was in the sleepy baby stage where sleeping anytime and anywhere isn't a problem.
One of my favorite places was the Natural History Museum and the National Botanical Gardens. Madison loved petting the giant bugs in the insect museum and she had a ton of fun playing in the water at the children's garden.
The wedding was beautiful and we were glad that we were able to be a part of it. Thanks Courtney and Christian for falling in love! It was great to spend time with the Pratt and Pena families!

We're going to D.C. for a wedding next week! Glad to see it looks like a lot of fun.
Now you know why Justin and I have gone to DC so many times since we have been here! We love going and seeing all the many many sites there. I am glad yall had a good time. We really do need to come and visit soon because Cohen kept saying Madison's name Sunday and opening his arms out really wide and saying, "HUG?". I asked him if we wanted to hug Madison and he said, "yeah!"
DC is such a fun place to visit. Especially because most things are FREE! We'll have to check out the botanical gardens next time. Glad you had fun!
