DC Trip ~ May 2014 ~ Part 1

The beginning of May (May 1-10), we were able to take a great vacation with mom and dad.  This was our second time to go with them to Washington DC and we loved it!  There is sooo much to see and do there…. we would go back 100 times.
This time was a little different.  We had a very busy little one year old. This was Mollie’s first time on an airplane and she did great!  It wasn’t fun hauling the carseat and stroller everywhere but we made it.

We stayed with my parent’s good friends Mark and Terri for a couple days.  They have a huge house and even had a baby bed for Mollie…. She didn’t sleep in it much, but it was a good try.  She mostly enjoyed going up and down all the stairs and eating their chocolate.

The first big thing we did, was drive to Gettysburg.  Nate loves seeing real historic places like this.  We took an audio tour and it was really fun.

We also went to the Marine Museum in Virginia somewhere ;)

From there we went to a fancy hotel in downtown DC.  Nate and I had a fun experience trying to find a gas station before returning the rent-a-car.  We were in walking distance to the capitol.
