Fall Break pt. 1

For Fall Break we headed to Virginia and Washington D.C. I've never been to D.C. so I was excited to go. I wasn't so excited about spending 11 hours in the car with 5 kids but everyone survived. We drove to my sister's in Virginia on Sunday and then headed to D.C. on Monday and stayed there until Wednesday. On Monday we decided to see all of the monuments. It was a little chilly but the kids did pretty good considering how much we walked.


This is an underwater tunnel near my sister's that I hate driving in.

FDR Monument
When we got to this monument we entered at the back of it which is a wall and some bathrooms. At first we thought that was the monument but as we walked more we realized it was actually a pretty big monument that spanned FDR's three terms as president.

Martin Luther King, Jr. Monument

In front of Lincoln Monument. Liam spent most of his time in the stroller. Luckily, he was a pretty good sport about it.
