Our Trip to DC

Earlier this month, we had a chance to go to DC. Chris went there on business for work and I got to tag along. We had so much fun. We were able to meet up with a couple of our friends that were in the same program as Chris in Texas who ended up moving to Virginia (right outside of DC). It was great being able to catch up with them and they were pros at all the site seeing so that was great. Taught us how to use the metro - more confusing than you know.

Getting started on our trip to DC...yes we drove, it was a fun roadtrip though, only about 10 hours with stops and all the crazy traffic.


Some crazy, big pumpkins we saw while driving through Pennsylvania. One took up the bed of the truck and then two others took up a trailor.


Our first metro ride with our friends Kent and Jena.



All the neat things we got to see














Downtown Alexandria, Virginia



Dinner with our friends Kent and Jena at Glory Days Grill



Yum, the cheesecake factory - dessert with our friends Kent, Jena, and Jessica


On our trip here, we were able to pick up a few more keychains to add to the places we have been...Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, and DC - we now have 19 different states (including DC even though that isn't a state).
