washington, dc

we finally made it to virginia at like 1am and crashed at cami's apartment. :) we were so happy to finally be there. cami greeted us at the airport with a plate of homebaked cookies! she is so cute and was just as excited as we were!

the next morning, thursday, was cami's day off, so we headed to dc to see some sights {kind of appropriate on the 24th of july}

this is at arlington cemetery ~ jfk's grave.

on the little tour bus through the cemetery

being patriotic in front of the national archives! haha

the washington monument ~ very cool

the whole walk from washington monument, by the reflection pool, to the lincoln memorial was our highlight of the day! it was such a nice day, not too humid and not too hot! and such a beautiful walk. . .

haha . . . this was cami's idea. this is on the ground on the steps of the lincoln memorial . . . i thought it was pretty clever ;)

these are some more fun highlights of the day: we saw the constitution, bill of rights, declaration of independance, vietnam memorial, ford's theatre, the house where lincoln died, the changing of the guard at the tomb of the unknown soldier
