One of the things Roy and I love doing is exploring all the fun places in DC, especially the ones that no one really knows about. Last weekend we went with some friends to a statue called "The Awakening". It is a statue of a man who looks like he is just waking up. It is huge! Just driving up to it, we were amazed by the size, but once you get right up to it, it's even more incredible. Here we are standing by the hand:

And here is Roy posing by the head with a little surprise for the statue/victim:

So for those of you wanting to come visit DC, we have lots of fun ideas of different places to go. The monuments and the Smithsonians and the other places along the Mall are, of course, must-sees, but there are also some places that even DC-area residents don't know about. And all those things make your trip to DC very worth it!

Welcome to the blog world Michelle! Glad you guys are doing well. Derek is in his last year of law school and applying for jobs like crazy (and we have the rejection letters to prove it). I'm glad to be done with it soon! Anyways, glad you have discovered the world of blogging. Chelsea (Becky's old roomie, Steph's friend)
