Lots o' stuff

I have to apologize for going almost a week without a post. I had to go out of town for work so that meant no posts and no pics of the toots cause I had the camera. I went to Washington DC last week for work and it was a good trip. I learned a lot at my conference and I am looking forward to putting my new knowledge to good use. It was also great cause Kathy and Jake met me there so I wouldnt get lonely. :) It stays light in DC until about 9:00 so even with the conference I was still able to meet up with them to do a little sightseeing and touristy things. We had a great time. We went to the Holocaust museum, the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History and the Arlington cemetary. Here are some pics from the trip and just a few of the toots. Promise to take more this week.
