Preparations

I have for the most part finished packing for the trip to Washington DC. I have collected my fundraising (or as my relatives who gave it call it, "mooch-money") for the trip today. I am so excited! This is my first trip out of state with no family members with me. It's gonna be awesome. The Blossoms (as my siblings are known) concern about me going away to this great place is what "prizes" I am going to get them. I think it changes daily. At the moment they want little teddy bears. Yesterday Michael told me that he wanted Transformers (?) and Gabri wanted Dora stuff. I don't know exactly what street vendor would have that combination.
