Pictures from my trip to Virginia {Part 1}

I know that some of you are waiting for pictures from my trip that I took last week. :) I have so many pictures that I'm going to try and divided them into two posts, maybe three. Also before I forget, go check out an awesome giveaway that Amber hosting on her delightful blog. Hurry though, it ends tonight.  Well, maybe don't hurry. As I really want to win. :)

Day 1 {really day 2, but we spent the first day driving.} - Harpers Ferry/Alexandria/Washington D.C.

Bookshop at Harpers Ferry =) I found some great books in this shop and all for a wonderful price. 

Harpers Ferry was great. The book shopping is wonderful. The town is unique and charming. And if the town looks familiar, it's because it was used in the film, Gods & Generals.
