D.C. Temple lights with the Fishers

We finally made it to the temple together! My sister and I have been trying to coordinate this trip to see the lights for 2 years. It was a short trip but we had a good time walking around the temple. Afterward we went to a Jewish Deli in Wheaton, MD. It was amazing, I strongly suggest the Shawarma with everything on it.

Christmas Soiree with the House of Payne girls!

We had Christmas Dinner at the Founding Farmers in D.C. It was pretty cool, all organic food. I'm glad we were all able to get together during the Christmas season. I love these girls!

Scottish Christmas Parade

The Scottish Parade was last weekend in Old Town Alexandria. Kami and I had fun watching all the bagpipes and scotty dogs parade around. We sat right outside of the famous 7 ft. house that I tell everyone about. Click on this link to see inside the quaint blue house (it's the second page on the link).

Thanksgiving in South Carolina...

Carlie and I went to Thanksgiving Dinner with Nicole's Family in Columbia, South Carolina. The Lyman family all flew in from Utah to meet up at her sisters' house in Columbia. Somehow, I didn't take many pictures but the dinner was amazing and her family is so great. We basically vegged and hung out for several days and had a blast. Since Nicole is moving back to Utah over christmas, she packed her mini cooper full of bags for her family to take back with them. Needless to say, it was a very cozy ride from DC to South Carolina!

Inauguration Tickets

Last week I received a call from Congressman Bishop's office confirming that they have 2 tickets for me for Inauguration. There has been some talk in D.C. that there is supposed to be about 5 million people coming to town for Obama's big, monumental inauguration on January 20, which is going to make it debilitating to live here. I started thinking that it would be a great time to leave town (visit my sis in Denver or my friend in Florida) but now that I have tickets to be part of the madness, I just might stay in town to witness the Obama Mania first hand!
I have more posts coming, patience...
