Washington DC

We're still alive! I know a lot of you were wondering since I haven't updated in a while. Anyways, for our anniversary, Casey and I went to Washington D.C. to see the sights and visit Josh. The first day there we went to the Holocaust Museum (very eye-opening and Casey's favorite). They had excellent exhibits and there was so much that we learned about the Holocaust that we never knew. We also went to a Nationals v. Mets game. It was a lot of walking, but little did we know how much more we would do...

The Holocaust Museum. The architecture was really cool. It was all very plain and almost cold with a lot of steel, brick, and unfinished wood. It definately set a mood for the museum.

The Room of Remembrance. Above these candles they had the names of different concentration camps and you could light the candles underneath them.
One of the windows that I liked.
Throughout the museum, they had informational videos with modern day interviews with survivors, troops, trials, etc.One of my favorite pictures that we saw.

Children's Tile Wall. Children from around the United States made tiles themed around the Holocaust.

This museum definately made you think...

A flag outside the museum. Just made you glad for the country we live in and for our freedom.

The Nationals Game. We all got free Lincoln bobbleheads. This is Casey and Josh mimicking Honest Abe's stern expression.
