We went to Washington, DC for the March for Life with St. Ed's. Madeline and I had already volunteered to chaperone for Dana’s class, and then we acquired Ana Paula, so we quickly worked with the school to allow her to attend as well. It had been probably 20 years since Madeline and I had been there, and this wasn’t the best opportunity to see the city, but it was still nice (and very cold). |

Because we were a bit late for a youth rally, we went to a quick Mass and then had some time to kill before the March began, so I took Ana and Dana on a walk to the White House |
