Philadelphia and Valley Forge
For Spring Break we decided to drive to D.C. with a quick stop in Philadelphia and Valley Forge.
We were so thankful to spend a couple days with
Sheena and Brian (I'm so sad I forgot to takes pictures)
and spend a couple days right in D.C.
There was so much to see and I didn't even come close to realizing how
much my feet would hurt from all the walking.
We loved every museum and tour and feel blessed we had the
time and opportunity to see the things we got to see.

FUN!! I've been out east a couple of times and still haven't seen Valley Forge, which is really unfortunate because I really like studying the Revolutionary War. :( Also, how neat to get a picture free of people at the Liberty Bell! Our pictures (from Sheena's reception out there) are just FULL of other tourists. :(
ReplyDeleteAnd Tasha and Beth would love the Rocky pictures. :)
I DO love the Rocky pictures. ;p
DeleteAlso, I remember standing right where you are when we saw the Liberty Bell!
