DC Trip

Last weekend we went to DC to visit our friends Henry and Amber. We had a really great time hanging out and went to see some DC sites.

We went to the zoo.

Here is our attempt at a family photo, awkward or what? Haha I really need to work on getting a good family photo so I can replace our site logo with one that includes Ky too. But I guess quirky is just how we are.

At the primate exhibit we noticed they have a chimp named Kyle and after some consideration we realized that he and (my) Kyle looked a lot alike, right?

Kyle LOVED the lions, he could have watched them all day.
And I think we did watch them for about a half hour.
Unfortunately Kacen fell asleep before we even saw the cool animals.

There was one lion, two lioness and seven cubs

After the National Zoo we headed over to Georgetown Cupcake.
Some of you may know this show from DC Cupcakes on TLC.

Well we waited in this freaking long hour and half line in the freezing cold....

....to pay $16.50 for 6 mediocre cup cakes. Well here is the deal I think the cupcakes were good but the wait sort depleted their value. Had I only waited 10 minutes in nice weather I bet I would think their cupcakes were delicious. But it was a fun experience and the idea to actually wait in the line was mine so thanks guys for waiting with me. Also had I known exactly what cupcakes were the most amazing to me I would have been happier, for instance had I only bought key lime and coconut cupcakes that would have made me more satisfied. So if any of you have a chance to go try those, yumm.

Here are the flavors we tried.

I don't mean to bash the store, they were good cupcakes the wait was just a little ridiculous.

And PS for all my Rexburg homies, don't worry if you can't make it to DC any time soon, the Cocoa Bean is still WAY better.
