Wedding in DC

We were in DC for a family wedding last weekend. It was cold, rainy, quite miserable, but we made it out to the sites on Sunday morning. We were about ten days too early for peak cherry blossoms, but there were some trees with a few buds.

It was Jason's first time in DC, and he was able to see The Mall and The White House.

On Friday, we met up with everyone at Old Nesbitt Grill, then closed out the night (read: drank all the Wild Turkey in DC) at The Bottom Line. It was ridiculous and we were hungover as fuck on Saturday.

Wedding was Saturday night at the Daughters of the American Revolution. It was a beautiful building. There were four volumes of my family's history published in the library.

Funny moment was when my cousin Mike had to break the glass at the end of the ceremony.  His brother Chris, who officiated along with Mel's brother David, forgot to bring something glass. He asked the people at DAR, and they said he could take a lightbulb from one of the lamps in the library.  He didn't realize it was plastic!! So when Mike stepped on it, it just collapsed!
