A family friend who works at the capital offered to give us a tour of the capital building! The kids and I had a great experience seeing the beautiful capital building in our own little tour
The newly finished visitors center is huge! There are statures from all the states. I loved this one of Sacagawea was one of my favorites. How can they make bronze look like flowing leather tassels?
This is a replica of "Lady Liberty" that stands atop the capital building.
This star represents the exact center of DC. It was made as a tomb for Washington, but was never used for him or anyone else. 
The famous dome. As cool as it looks!
We were able to take in the views from the porch. We felt pretty special since that is not part of the "public" tour!
God bless America!!!
Not a bad way to spend the day!
