Well I'm obviously UNFORTUNATELY back from DC! Sniff Sniff, I truly love that place and would totally live there if I could! So in case you need to ask, the trip was AMAZING! We had good weather for the most part and were able to see and do so much! Not enough actually, we had a whole list of things we still needed to see! I'm so glad that Hollie was able to go with us, we had so much fun!
If you know not only me, but Hollie too - you know we took WAY TOO MANY pictures! And here's the thing - it's soo much faster to upload pics to Facebook than it is to blogger - so here's just a few samplings from the excursion! There are lots more on FB and even more on my computer!!
Enjoy!

Couldn't resist! :) 
Bein silly at FDR Memorial - that's Franklin Delano Roosevelt
We were able to go out and see the deLeon Family in Virginia!
It was seriously one of the highlights of the trip - so thanks Jen for letting us visit - your kids are the stinkin cutest ever!

We went on a Capitol tour, Congressman Matheson's intern Julie was our guide, she did an awesome job!

Me and Hollie are pretty much artists - this is a piece of art we created at Ted's Montana Grill - using silverware, straws and a little piece of lettuce - or whatever you call that green decorative stuff..
Pretty much amazing right??
Arlington National Cemetary
That pretty much covers the bases - again, it was a great trip! So thank you to Captain Ron (and the National Farmers Union) for making it happen!
