Celebrating our Favorite Veteran

Today we went to school for the Veteran's Day program. John David wanted to sit with Aaron. He thinks he is always supposed to be wherever Daddy is. And he did pretty good......for the most part. He got a little squirmy and I went to get him. When I let him go back to sit with Aaron a few minutes later, he was fine for the rest of the program.



I was able to find Sarah and Carolyn amidst the sea of children.



And Lily too. She made this sweet card she is holding for Aaron. She gave it to him after she read her part in the program.



The program is always great.......short and sweet.





Sarah came over for a quick hug (and picture) after the program.



Here's Aaron with his high school friend, Tony, who is in the Army Reserves. He is also on the Sulphur Police Department. He comes over to visit from time to time and I have learned not to be alarmed when I see a police officer or car in the driveway.



Friday night we invited a few friends over to celebrate with some cake.



I forgot to take pictures of the inside of the cake, but it was red, white, and blue with strawberry filling.



We are grateful to all of the men and women who serve our country!
