Quick Trip to DC...

On Wednesday we drove down to DC to watch this guy graduate with his Master's:Congrats Uncle Andy!
* IT WAS 60 degrees the whole time we were there- so warm :)
For dinner I was SUPER excited to go here:Cafe Rio!!!

On Thursday was the graduation and my beautiful friend Alexis let us come play at her house.
This cutie got to play with her friendHappy Birthday H!

These two buddies got to be together again
and I got to be with my buddy too! (sorry Alexis this was the best of the set :)

The young kids and I drove back to DC and met up with everyone. Then we drove to see some monuments. We walked to the Jefferson Memorial:Merry Christmas!

FDR Memorial and Martin Luther King:

Next we went to see the "Zoo Lights" at the National Zoo:
Flamingos!

Andy took us to a great Mexican place for dinner and after that we walked around the DC Temple(it was raining) There were so many lights!Finally- before going back to the hotel we made one more stop:On Friday we drove back home and Grandma & Grandpa had the house warm for us and delicious soup on the stove.

Right now I'm baking things for dinner tonight and B, Jane, Andy, and Grandma & Grandpa Damstedt are at an NFL game Bronco's vs Bills!

Merry Christmas Eve Everyone!
