Watching with the President

John and I have made it a goal to attend all the sporting events we can while in D.C. Last night we went to the Wizards and Chicago Bull basketball game. They delayed the game a few minutes and we were wondering what was going on when in walks President Obama. He was sitting on the same side of the court just opposite baskets. We had an unobstructed view of him for the whole game.

Pretty great - been within yards of 2 presidents within 3 months.

Life in Washington D.C.

Life in the DC. So many mixed emotions. First and foremost Mom and I miss our kids. Chris and I are blessed to have wonderful kids. So it's tough. However --- life in the DC we know is temporary. And we will make the best of it. Last Saturday we 'interviewed' for volunteering at the Kennedy Center. And we took a tour of the building. Very nice. But I think the only volunteer opportunities they have there is the gift shop. Forget it. So I applied last night for volunteering at Air and Space Museum. --- Our Ward here is the Crystal City Ward. Filled with mostly 30 somethings who are very intelligent. Because it is such a young Ward, very few kids. The fast and testimony I actually attended was somewhat enjoyable. No five year olds got up with their parents expressing the robotic five year old testimony. Refreshing. We do like the Ward. In fact, we like it so much I might even show up twice a month. As far as work goes, my job is a little challenging being the chief of safety at Bolling AFB. Chris's job on the other hand is interesting because she has been able to eat more In-N-Out Burgers since we moved here, due to her meetings have been in San Diego and Phoenix. I'm jealous. Chris is going to Williamsburg, Virginia, this week.
