Update: I can't believe I forgot about this! I must have blocked it out. My sister-in-law just remin




At the beginning of May we took a trip to Washington DC with Nathan's hotels in vero beach florida family. His sister, Lindsay, has been living there and working as a White House Fellow for the past year. She had all the inside information and access to the cool places you can't get into without knowing someone. So...it was the perfect way to see DC!
I was super nervous about this. When my family visited the museum when I was 9ish I started crying and my mom had to take me out early. Ever since I have been scared to go back but knew I should probably see it as an adult. The trip wasn't very successful. I made it one room past the one I got to when I was 9 and bailed to cry in the lobby. Probably won't try this again...
The next day we put on our fancy clothes and headed to the White House for our tour of the East Wing. The only way to get a tour of this area these days is to get permission from your Senator or know someone. Which luckily, we did.
Update: I can't believe I forgot about this! I must have blocked it out. My sister-in-law just reminded me of the story that went along with this couch. I was sitting there just enjoying hanging out with the kids when the following conversation happened:
Ready to go in. You can't see this part of the White House unless you know someone that works in the White House. Luckily, again, we did. No pictures inside which was a huge bummer as we saw some really amazing things such as: The Situation Room and The Oval Office. Very cool.
On our last day we wanted to go to Ben's Chili Bowl. We had heard from a couple of sources that this was the place to eat. We were meeting the group that ran the marathon/half hotels in vero beach florida marathon that morning and we got there a little before them so we decided hotels in vero beach florida to take a walk.
Ahhh...so hotels in vero beach florida much to say about such a fantastic hotels in vero beach florida trip! First of all, I noticed you didn t mention what was under the couch you were sitting on in the Fellows Office. And I love the pictures of Nathan and the boys jumping off the steps because Scout has the same expression in the next picture. Haha.
