FCCLA Capitol Leadership - Washington D.C.

This year I had the opportunity to go to Washington D.C. with my friend (and assistant) and our 9 State Officers from Utah. It was a super fun trip. The kids learned a lot in their meetings and we were able to do some touring and see that sights of D.C. We needed another week to see everything. It was a great time! The worst part of the trip was not having Josh and Elsie there with me. I missed them tons! Josh did a great job. He is the best dad ever!

Our visit to the Arlington National Cemetery

Everyone needs to visit this cemetery at least once in their lifetime.

These kids catch on quick....

This cemetery amazes me!

This is outside the Washington Monument. I am jumping in the air in this picture - It looks like I am laying on the ground :)

I laid out outfits and jammies for Josh to put on Elsie for every day I was gone :)
I hear she looked cute every day :) Way to go Daddy!
