We are so fortunate to live as close as we do to our nation's capital. This three day, two night excursion takes us to a beautiful and reverent place in our country that is steeped in history and tradition.  The kids will get to see a variety of different museums and destinations and monuments, and will hopefully leave the week with a deeper appreciation for our nation's institutions, government, and leaders.
