A Capitol Fourth

Since we were already in Maryland that weekend, we HAD to experience the 4th of July in our Nation's Capitol!

Last time we were in DC it was February so it was great experiencing the sites and monuments in the summer time.

Mr. Obama wouldn't let us get very close to his house... :(

If any of you remember Tyler's feelings last time we were here, I'm pleased to announce he's had a change of heart!

We ran into some of Tyler's friends from Pinnacle (so fun!) so we joined them on the lawn of the capitol to watch the concert.

David Archuleta was my fav!

FIREWORKS!!

The fireworks were A-W-E-S-O-M-E! 17 minutes long!

This was a very patriotic 4th of July for us and we loved every minute of it. (well, we didn't so much love the process of 1,000,000 people trying to get on the metro afterwards but that is another story)
