The Arnold's Go To Washington! (Plus a Barney)

So my uncle is retiring from the military after 20+ years in the Army!  Him and his family are such a great example of sacrifice and service!! Believe me they ALL served in a different way!
The only bad thing was that Drew could not come with us :(  This was the first time we have ever been apart and it was for a WHOLE WEEK!  We made it through :)
We started our trip by venturing in the metro!

Then we were off to the Pentagon and Arlington National Cemetery.  Since my uncle worked in the pentagon, we were able to get a private tour! There are no pictures allowed in the Pentagon, but the boys were able to get their haircut!! Once in a lifetime opportunity, I think yes!


Military Hair cuts!


Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, military guard

The Next day we were on our own and we went to Mount Vernon and ventured around the capital!
Including the Air and Space Smithsonian for David :)

Oh George!

Funniest Picture of my dad ever!! hahaha!
