Our Nation's Capital 

Hello Lovlies. I'm Jordan Nicole :) At the end of May I had the privilege of visiting our nations capital. My parents and I went on a week long trip to Washington DC. It was an extremely humbling experience and I would wholeheartedly recommend that every single United States citizen visit the capital at some point in their lifetime. It is just so amazing to see our history and learn so much about our country. It is truly life changing. Below I have included a general outline of our trip, along with tons of pictures!

Well that was it, my entire DC trip! I hope you liked my pictures :) I may do a more wordy post about the trip later. Let me know if that's something you'd like to see in the comments below. Maybe include a few tips on what it worth seeing and what can be skipped. I also learned a lot of things in terms of tickets and planing! I'd love to share some of those things with y'all. This is a trip that I think everyone should take. Whether you have a week like we did, or just a weekend. It will touch your heart.
