Luxembourg...

As you saw from a couple of posts ago my parents were here and we had a great time hanging out with them (and they blessed us by watching the kiddos while we were in NY).  One of the things on our list to do with them was to go to the American Cemetery in Luxembourg.  My Dad's Uncle is buried there.  He was in World War II and died on Dec. 24th, 1944.

It was a beautiful day and the cemetery is very nicely done.  General Patton is even buried here.

This is my great uncle's marker.

The kiddos were enjoying the nice weather and playing with the grass.
This is how most pictures go with the kiddos these days.  The kids can't stay still enough for a pic...Ava was crawling away as fast as she could. :)

Grandpa (Pa Pa...which Ava can say really well)  caught her and she had a fun ride on his shoulders.

After the cemetery we went into the city of Luxembourg and had a nice lunch.

We also went on a trolley tour of the beautiful city but you can tell the kids were getting a little tired and it was hot on the trolley!

After some naps in the car we found this cool castle.  We had a great time touring through it!

It was a super fun and very full day!!  Here's another shot in the Castle and there is Grandma! :)

And a shout out for Grandpa Norm--Happy Birthday!!!
