T Minus 8 Months.....

Eight Months from today this kid:

and I will board one of these:

for a 20 hour ride (yes 20 HOURS!) to:

as part of an 8th. grade trip.

I. CAN'T. WAIT.

And I think he

is excited, too!

We will get to see and do a TON! Like....

(The Capitol, the White House and The Supreme Court.)

and these in honor of Presidents:

(Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, FDR Memorial and the Jefferson Memorial)

And these solemn sites:

(Holocaust Memorial Museum, Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial, the Pentagon Memorial and Arlington National Cemetery)

And these war remembrances:

(Iwa Jima Marine Memorial, Korean War Memorial, WW 2 Memorial and the Vietnam War Memorial)

We will also get to take a cruise to:

(Mt. Vernon--George Washington's Estate)

We will see:

(The National Cathedral)

Our trip will also include a stop here:

(Georgetown Cupcakes)

This kid:

is very excited about going to:

(Nationals Park)

to watch:

in a baseball game.

I am so thrilled to get to share all of this with

This guy, however,:

is a little worried about what he'll feed these 2:

for 5 days!

I am already thinking that I will need to get this:

fully loaded and charged for my 20 hour bus ride!

And don't you think this would be a great time to get a new one of these??
