A Quick Trip to DC

The weekend before we flew to Utah for the Christmas holidays we went out to DC to see my sister Sarah.  Well, we wanted to see her, BUT Rick also had a Sans Tournament to go to.  I just know it's a computer hacking competition and after hearing that it was in DC, the boys and I wanted to tag along to see Sarah, so that's what we did! 

We mainly hung out, since the weather wasn't the greatest.  The boys slept pretty well for the most part.  We went to the Botanical Gardens on Monday afternoon, which was really nice and the boys enjoyed seeing for the most part.  And then we left pretty early on Tuesday.  Tuesday was interesting because the route that we took to DC was all icy and snowing, which we didn't know about when we left, so we had to turn on the radio, ask what county was in the alert, and finally turn around and drive about 30 minutes back to hit another freeway/highway.  Needless to say, it was just a really, really long day. 

And I have I mentioned that traveling while pregnant really sucks?  I like to think that I don't complain or whine too much but with all the traveling and sickness that I've had the past month and a half, I am so over being pregnant. 

Anyways, we didn't take as many pictures as I wanted, but I did take some of them.  :)

The nice looking tree.

So glad that we could go out to see Sarah, and we're not that far from her to make a quick trip.  The boys were really happy to spend so much time with Sarah, even though they kept getting into trouble.  :)
