Our DC Trip

Heights Christian Junior High 8th grade at the White House

It's hard to believe that a month ago today, we were on the last leg of our AMAZING 12-day Washington DC/East Coast trip! We started in Virginia and went to places like Jamestown and Colonial Williamsburg. Then, we went to Washington DC and if you've never been there, I suggest you go! Pictures just don't do justice to the majesty of the place!

We saw pretty much everything we could see in DC (even went over to Annapolis in Maryland). After that, we stopped at Gettysburg and then Philadelphia. You can really appreciate this country and all that was done to make it what it is today when you visit all of these places.

We ended the trip in New York City - Lion King, Ground Zero, pizza, shopping @ Times Square, the Empire State Building, Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty. Awesome!

Thanks to everyone for their prayers and support. I will cherish EVERY memory of the trip - especially because I got to share it with Matthew and some other really special kids!

xoxo,
Julie

    Hi! I stumbled upon your blog--love your fancy blog design! The cupcake theme is precious. I recently purchased a book on decorating cupcakes and I have actually made some very intricate and neat cupcakes. I couldnt have done it without instruction though.
