Washington D.C. for the 4th

I got a chance to go up to Washington D.C. on the 4th with 3 friends. We went and stayed with another friend of ours for 3 nights and had a great time! We drove up after work Thursday, explored the city Friday, watched fireworks from the Capitol lawn on Saturday, and drove back on Sunday. It was a quick trip, but very worth it. It made me miss living up there! Here are a few pictures from the weekend:

Mallory and I at the Lincoln Memorial.
Matt, me, Mallory, Joel, Clay, and Daniel with the Washington Monument in the background.
Daniel, me, Clay, Matt, and Joel at the Capitol Building. This was Friday and we got to watch some of the performers rehearse for the concert the next day. It was awesome because we were so close and hardly anyone else was there!
Different view of the Capitol.
The Washington Monument or "The Pencil" as we used to call it.
Waiting for the Metro on the 4th. Quite an experience.
Matt's sisters, Mallory, and me waiting for the Metro.
Waiting for the fireworks. I think we had 4 hours left right here.
Conner's in town right now. We went camping last night and had a fabulous time! I'll try to get some pics posted soon.
