FUN in D.C.

Okay, it's already been a month, but I wanted to post about our trip the end of February to D.C. We met our REALLY WONDERFUL FRIENDS, Jason, Katie, and their children, whom we hadn't seen since Nathan was born, way too long! Andy and Jason go back to their Freshman year at BYU...great friends. Anyhow, we've been talking about getting together and have kept in touch these many years, when last year they moved much farther East and so we decided to meet up in Washington for a day and then they came to our house for a visit. We had so much fun catching up and the kids all get along extremely well...like cousins, only they had no recollection of each other. Seriously, I was amazed at how well they all took to each other. We started with Air and Space, then the National Archives, then we got to go to the top of the Washington Monument (thanks for getting those tickets, Katie) and ended up at Natural History, add: a trip to and fro on the METRO (that rhythms) with nine children, four adults, several backpacks, strollers, etc...it was way fun, and could definitely be catagorized as an adventure! We stayed at a great hotel, close to the Washington D.C. Temple and both got a chance to go, WONDERFUL. Then on Saturday we all headed down to our house. It was so great to have them! Wish I had taken more pictures. Jason and Katie are the type of friends where we came away truly uplifted, inspired by their goodness, and feeling so fortunate to have friends like them in our lives!
