Fun with Family in D.C.

Three days after I got home from helping Shellie, I turned around and flew to Washington D.C. to be with Kirk at the end of his Sheriff's conference, and to head out to Woodbridge to stay with Kenny and Christan. We are so lucky - we've been able to visit them 5 times since they moved 1 1/2 years ago. Thank goodness for Sheriff business! We timed it just right, because not long after we got back home, the storms hit back there. They have had sooo much snow they've had to cancel school and work several different times these last few weeks. One of the first things we were able to do was take a tour of the White House. We were there with a bunch of noisy school groups, and the tour went so fast, we were outside and done before we knew it. President Obama didn't come say hi, but Bailey knew that he was somewhere in the White House because the flag on top was flying (she learned that in school). After the tour we met my nephew, Brady Barrett in D.C. for lunch. He's there as intern with Rep. Jason Chavetz, and he's having a great time visiting all the historic sights he can cram in before his internship is over in April. It was great to see his handsome face.
