Ch-ch-ch-changes


I just wanted to do a quick re-cap on what has been happening lately in my life before I get to what this post is really about. My time here in the DC area has been fantastic, but like any person might do, I started to miss being close to my family. I love, love, love the city, but when the opportunity of a new job in Utah presented itself, I decided to apply and just see what happened. I was very torn over what I was going to do if I got offered the job. The pros of saying yes far outweighed the cons, but at the same time, I did not want to leave this area I have come to love. The answer came in kind of an unexpected way, but it came, so when I got the call that I got the job, I accepted it. Like any major decision, I have had my doubts about it, but am trusting in my Heavenly Father and the answer He gave me.

Since I am leaving in just a little over a week, I went to DC with my sister and her fam to see some of the sights I haven't seen, but wanted to. We went to the Library of Congress first. Oh. my. wow! This building is  amazing. The architecture, the books, everything. I can't get over how much history is located here in DC. That is one thing I am going to miss about it. We also went to lunch at this local burger place called Good Stuff Eatery. It lived up to it's name. Everything was delicious and homemade. It hit the spot.







After lunch, we went to the National Gallery of Art. That place is huge! My knowledge of art is pretty much limited to what I learned from playing the game Masterpiece, so I didn't know much about any of the art pieces there or the artists, but it was enjoyable to walk around anyway and look at everything. It was the perfect way to spend a Saturday. I am going to miss this place!
