On Tuesday we hung out and played until the afternoon. These little girl cousins don't remember the last time they met, but they had a lot of fun playing together. That evening we went to a barbecue/birthday party at my brother P's house.
On Wednesday we went down to Arlington National Cemetery to see the changing of the guard at the tomb of the unknown soldier.
We were a little worried about all the kids keeping themselves silent and reverent... but they did pretty well.
All the rest of us had our hands on our hearts as the wreaths were presented, but this gentleman had a "Vietnam Veteran" hat on and he saluted. I thought that was very poignant.
Miss L thinks that she is a ballerina now and insists on wearing her costume everywhere.
We visiting the JFK memorial plot and saw the eternal flame.
