It's been forever!

Hey everyone. Yes, I am officially the worst blogger there is. HA! It's been forever. It's real slow at work right now so I thought that I would at the least post a little something. Well, this week is Spring break and Keith and I were lucky enough to be able to spend a couple of days in DC together. We left this past Saturday to stay with my family in Roanoke Rapids and then headed to DC the next day. It was so nice to be away from the stresses of school and work. When we got to DC and were going to our hotel it turned out that their was a movie being filmed there! It was supposedly the new Angelina Jolie movie. We were a little excited because we heard that she was "supposedly" near the White house shooting a scene. So Keith and I decided to check in and head out to see the sights. Unfortunately we never saw Angelina, but it was still cool to know her film was being filmed at our hotel!

On Sunday we just spent a few hours looking at the sights like the White house, Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, WWII memorial, and so on. It was nice:). On Monday we went to almost every museum it seemed like. I finally got to see the Holocaust museum! It was amazing, yet sad.(of course) We also went to see money made and printed, the air and space museum, natural history museum, american history museum, and Hard Rock for dinner! Afterwards we just walked around DC and went by the White house one more time.

Our last day there we went to the DC temple! It was also amazing! We went to the visitors center to see the new Joseph Smith movie(very good movie!) and then to do a session. Afterwards we went to the bookstore and bought a few things and then had to hit the road. It was only about 5 1/2 hours in all for the drive home. Needless to say I was sad to get back to reality yesterday.

I would post pictures and I may later on, but I am at work and have no access to my pictures:(. If I am your friend on facebook though, I posted them there!
