What an exciting day for Austin! A parent at church, whos daughter is in youth group with Austin, offered to take some of the kids for a tour of the executive offices in the White House! Years ago, we took a tour of the White House but it was of the banquet area, portraits, reception areas. Its sad that you can't take any pictures inside the White House because that would be so cool. But alas, they had to settle for a picture standing outside. The highlight of the tour was getting to see the Oval Office! The President was not there, he was out playing golf. But it was definitely a great experience for Austin to see and learn about where history takes place (well, he was also excited to see the new playground equipment for the President's daughters....that seem to be a hit with the youth too..so funny). Unfortunately, you can't see the Presidential seal too well above them.
