Washington D.C.



We were able to travel to D.C. and wow was I (Amanda) impressed at the city. Just looking at the architecture alone was enough for me to be happy with my trip.

We had so much to do and so little time to do it. We were not able to see everything that we wanted to see but we had an enjoyable experience nonetheless.

Supreme Court Building


Ryan's JASOC class.



...yes that is little man Keedan running in one of the massive halls of the bldg. Thankfully it was permitted :)


Taking the tour.



U.S. Capitol Building


Can I be any more obvious that I'm a tourist?




Ceiling of the Capital Bldg.






I've got my nifty headphones on (so to be able to hear our tour guide)standing beside a statue of Brigham Young.

Crime & Punishment Museum



Public Nuissance


Learning how to use a gun early in life.


All Locked UP!


Similation of Driving a Cop Car....it was difficult to steer, I just hope that reg. cop cars are a bit easier.


America's Most Wanted is filmed in the basement of the museum on Saturday's in front of a live audience.


Keedan and I on the America's Most Wanted set.

I wanted to come so bad! I loved DC when I went with Ryan like 6 years ago, but we only got to spend one day in DC and it is still on my list because there is so much to see. I did get to see the Holocaust Museum though...unbelievable!
