Matt is intently watching Duke play Purdue in the Sweet Sixteen right now (go Duke!) so I am taking the opportunity to share some pictures with you all. We were SO excited to have Jake and Kate come out to visit during Matt's spring break. We couldn't wait to show them around. Thanks mom for helping get them out here! Here are just a few pictures of our trip to DC with them.
So you can't see it here, but there is a person on the very top of the Capitol building. Maybe you have all noticed already, but none of us had a clue who it was supposed to be. After fifteen minutes of staring, debating, and googling WikiAnswers to see who it was, I decided to be brave and just ask a guard. He quickly told me it was Jesus. I guess I should have been more skeptical when he couldn't keep a straight face, but I quickly questioned why on earth Jesus would have a hat on.
For all of you as curious as we are, it's Lady Liberty. Personally I think she looked a little manlier than she should have, but hey blame our forefathers.

It was shocking how long it took to get this picture. I think about a dozen tourists kept jumping in there no less than a foot away. Really? Nope, we aren't taking a picture, just standing here trying to look pretty. Ya, that guy there is posing as a photographer taking our picture, why don't you jump in, we love having people in the background that we don't know from Adam.
Just a few snapshots, but we had a perfect time with you guys. We were so happy to see you, but again so sad to say goodbye. Thanks for visiting!
PS: Speaking of March Madness, I would like it to be on the record that my bracket is killing Matt's. :)

Great pics. Don't you love rude tourists? Last year when we were in Philly we tried desperately to get a pic with the liberty bell. Alas we did but there are about a half dozen strangers in there with us :( Oh well at least we can prove we were there and when Zeke asks we'll tell them they're distant relatives...hey it could be true!
Love the pictures......so glad you guys could spend some time together......no snow but looks terribly cold!
