d.c.

Before I get to any Christmas stuff (as in, I still need to finish my decorating!)  I thought I’d share some of my favorite shots from D.C.  Hope you like them.

This was the view from our hotel room.  We could see the entire D.C. skyline, including the White House, the Capitol, and the Jefferson Memorial.  This was just a part of the view.  Sunrise over the city?  Gorgeous. 

Washington DC 069e

Mount Vernon was so interesting and beautifully restored. It’s definitely worth the trip. 

Washington DC 099E

A view of the Capitol from inside the Library of Congress.

Washington DC 463e

And the World War II Memorial honoring those who served from all 50 states.   The mall and the memorials are beautiful. 

Washington DC 682e

Best,

Stephanie

  9. Beautiful photos! What a fun trip you had and your pictures are great.
    Since, once again, I've been so busy and away from blogging for a couple of weeks I'm just catching up.
    Congratulations on winning that wonderful Christmas package. What a fun gift to receive. I bet it was like an early Christmas celebration.
    I haven't done any decorating yet so that is the number one thing on my "to-do" list for the weekend. Have fun with all your decorating too!
