First stop in Washington DC was Ford's Theatre. It was a quick stop because we started our day later than we anticipated and we had more places to see.
It was a cold day but we were determined to walk along the trail and see the monuments. We stopped at the Vietnam War Veterans Memorial and looked at the thousands of names on the wall.
We were on our way to the Lincoln Memorial when we saw some black SUV's pull up and heard people cheering. Casey went ahead since we had the stroller and sure thing he did because he got great pictures of the President waving at everyone. Spencer and I got to see the President as he was pulling away in his car. We were not expecting to actually see the President while we were in Washington - what a nice surprise!

Shortly after this photo Spencer took a turn for the worse. He was freezing cold, hungry, and tired - bad combination. We quickly found a restaurant and got him fed. That helped a little but then we realized that we lost his binky. We found a local drug store but they didn't have the kind he liked so we tried to give him a new one but he didn't buy it for one bit. Since he had been a trooper all day we decided to call it a day.
Spencer passed out after a long day of site-seeing.
On our way back to our friends house we swung by the Washington DC LDS Temple.
Spencer was passed out in the car so no family photo for us.
