Carey's sister-in-law Mauren got us a West Wing White House tour. It was soooo cool!!! We saw the Oval Office, the Roosevelt Room, the mess, the door to the Situation Room (not sure why the tour did not extend in there...)...all the neat behind the scenes places. One of the neatest things was seeing the photos lining all the halls which are apparently updated weekly. The iconic photo of the leadership during the bin Laden raid was there and was even more impressive on a large scale then it was in the papers. There was one of Obama playing basketball that was really cool, and a couple of Michelle Obama that were simply stunning. It was a really, really, really neat experience and we were so impressed with the whole thing. Here are some pictures from that night. Notice that there were no kids along...it was an adults only kind of evening, followed by dinner at Georgia Browns which is one of my favorite DC restaurants. The fried green tomatos were still delicious and the atmosphere was festive and fun.
