spontaneous road trip
I remember Stone and I decided on a whim to go visit their dad and brother in Washington D.C. And I dont remember if Christina overheard us talking about it or if we asked her to come along, but in about a half hour of deciding on going we were already on our way. I remember Stone was driving and I was in the front seat. Christina were sprawled out in the back seat taking pictures and listening to music the entire 600 or so miles. I remember seeing her eyes light up when we got to the mountains. We kept laughing at and wondering where the hell "Falling Rock" was. We were so excited to be doing something so out of the blue. It seemed like forever while we were driving. But we got to DC at like 3 in the morning. I remember we called Micheal and asked what he was doing and that we were outside to come meet us and let us in. He didnt believe us and we told him to look out the window, but not realizing we were on the opposite side of the building. Christina were so happy to her brother and your dad and they were shocked to see us as we hadnt told them we were going to be out there to surprise them. Chris Stone and Mike stayed up all night laughing and having a good time. Ill never forget the first time out on the balconing on the 9th floor. Christina was SO TERRIFIED of stepping out there. She would put one foot out there and tap it to see if it was strudy enough to stand on. Well she and Stone both. We eventually we got her to come out and all she could do was stand in the doorway practically clinging on for dear life. We went sight seeing to all the various locations in DC. I remember we went to the White House and Chris and Mike and their dad were taunting the snipers on the roof. All Stone and I could do was pretend like we had no clue who they were. Christina even went out by herslef to get suvenieors for the kids and I remember thinking how brave she was for going all by herself in an unknown city. That was the most time Id seen her so happy. So full of life. I miss her so much. It hurts everyday knowing that all I have are just memories. RIP CHRISTINA
