Waiting for the tickets...

Nine of us camped out over night by the White House to get tickets for the National Christmas Tree lighting with the President. It was a fun night living on the sidewalks of DC.

This was the morning shot we woke up to with the Tree and Washington Monument.
We slept... well kind of. Yay for body warmth.

Ashley and I trying to stay warm.

Within 6 days, I managed to spend about 14 hours in line waiting for free events in DC... first Rosa then Christmas lighting. Go me. :) Good times. Long wait but well worth it.
