Jayden and Cameron enjoyed their first trip to Washington DC. They were able to see the White House, Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, Martin Luther King Memorial, Smithsonian African American museum, Smithsonian Nation Zoo, US Capitol, and Six Flags America. What a great trip and opportunity to learn about our nation's history. Definitely looks like they found time for plenty of fun, too!
