We came to DC for the swearing in of our friend Mike Lee the new US Senator. We are in front of the white house with our good friends the Smuins who joined us on this trip.
Went on an early 7:00am run around The Mall where we saw the Washington Monument and The Abraham Lincoln Memorial. It was early and cold, so we were able to enjoy this time by ourselves and honor our previous president and those who gave their lives for our country.
On returning from our run, we saw our Senator Mike Lee and his wife Sharon in front of the White House. They are our neighbors and she visit teaches me. We were so excited.
We were able to go on a night tour of many monuments and memorials. We were lucky enough to have the Senator teach us about everything. It was amazing to see everything at night.
This is the day of the Swearing in of our new Senator.
