Veteran's Day Parade

Hello my little budding buddies!  I hope you have enjoyed the cold weather here lately!   I was going through all my vacation pictures and remembered....I didn't finish telling you ALL about our week!  No worries......let's get this past Saturday posted and then I promise to back on sometime this week to post the rest of my Williamsburg pictures!

Now.............................ON TO THE MARCH!

Thank YOU to all the soldiers, past and present, that have put your lives out there so we may live free. I can not  imagine the pain and loneliness one must feel to let a loved one go and fight for those they do not know. Mothers & Fathers that have let go of sons...wives of husbands...and children of daddies.  I want to say thank you! Thank you for the freedom that you unselfishly give. With PRIDE and RESPECT - I give my utmost admiration.....THANK YOU, soldiers, for defending our nation!

Thank you, also, GIRLS SCOUT TROOP 30024 for stepping up and putting one foot in front of the other in support during the parade!  Yes, it was a brisk walk from here to there...and back around to here again :) - but you did it ...and did it with pride! I thank you too! Thank you for being an example of grace, and love.  The gleam of light that flickered in the Veteran's eyes when asked to have a picture with us was something I will never forget.  If we could only get inside their head to relive the agonies and pains of war.....they endure(ed) for OUR freedom....not one complaint of feet hurting...cold air...or hunger would have been uttered from our mouths.  What a joy and utmost respect I have for those that make MY country what it is....and pay the price to keep it free! Thank you Girl Scouts for making them feel it WAS worth it all!!!!

WHAT A WONDERFUL AND BLESSED DAY WE HAD!

THANK YOU GIRLS FOR MAKING THE DAY SPECIAL!
