We pulled into DC last year on July 5th, just missing the Fourth of July celebrations. This year we took full advantage of Ryan's day off and living in the nation's capitol! Instead of braving the crowds on the 4th, we joined a smaller group for the Concert on the Capitol rehearsal on the 3rd. With take-out dinner from two of our favorite eats on the Hill, we headed right in to find a spot on the lawn and catch the show. We ended up sitting with friends for the second half of the show and decided this is the way to enjoy the Capitol's Fourth of July celebration! Heading back to our car, we caught the fireworks from the Nationals stadium, making our pre-fourth night complete!
Gretchen was feeling patriotic on the morning of the fourth while I read:
A slow morning for everyone . . . it's good to have a sister.
Dinner at Steve and Vallerie's house with Great Gramma!!
