D.C. or BUST!

Hooray! We're actually going to get a little vacation this year! We are planning to go stay five nights in Washington DC with David during Spring Break. He's been working up there for a while and thought it would be fun for us to come stay. My mom and my baby sister are going with us, so it should be a lot of fun.

This will be our third trip to DC, but we still haven't seen everything I would like to see. I thought I would start making a list here of the things I want to do so that I won't forget them all! Here's the first one! I think Katie would love it, and I've always wanted to see the National Cathedral.
