SO LONG...FARWELL

Unfortunately, our time here in D.C. is up. These last three months have gone by so fast, and have been filled with fun times. We have made a lot of memories, meant a lot of weird people, a lot of nice people, and have seen a lot of great things! Like I have said a million times before we have really loved our time here. We wanted to do some fun things for our last weekend in the city. So, last night we walked up to the Washington Monument and went a 550 feet up to the very top. It was so cool, to see the city from that view, all lite up! If you ever get the chance to come to D.C. you should definitely do this at night.













On the way home we had to stop at my favorite little place the Red Velvet Cupcakery. They have the best red Velvet cupcakes, they are Divine!








Porter loves them too!!!








Tonight, we had a great dinner at Martins Tavern. Every United States President has eaten there since Truman. It is also where President John F. Kennedy proposed to Jacquelin Kennedy. He did it in booth three and that is the booth where we ate dinner. Yea, the marriage turned out to be a big crapper but it was still cool! After we ate we just enjoyed Georgetown and then took one final walk down to the mall.








This is the part of the menu that tells you what happened or who ate at each different booth. Ours was known as the "proposal" booth.





GOODBYE D.C. WE WILL MISS YOU AND LOVED OUR TIME HERE!!!!
