Grandpa and Grandma Anderson's visit

After visiting at Aunt Bonnie's house Grandpa and Grandma came up to see us for a few days. We were so excited to take them out to see some sights. Our first stop to us to Arlington. We parked on Fort Myer and planned to walk through the chapel gate. We had to wait a while because there was a funeral and the Cassion was waiting. We had the privilege of watching the horses.
We walked to the tomb of the unknown soldier and there we got to watch a few wreath placing ceremonies. From there my dad and I walked to the Eternal Flame where JFK and Jackie O are buried. (Arlington photos courtesy of Tessa)
The next trip into town was to the National Mall with David, Nathan and Grandpa. Tessa, AJ and Grandma stayed home. We saw the MLK memorial, Korean war memorial, Lincoln memorial, Washington monument and the flight museum.
