Veterans Day;

This holiday is really near and dear to my heart.

Of course as you all know my husband is in the Navy. He's been to war and I respect him and am so proud of him for this. B and I spent our day on the ship with Daddy since it was his duty day. We took our boys pumpkin cheesecake and watched some football with them. I'm so lucky to have a husband in a great division!

My grandfather on my mother's side fought in WWII in the Army.he received a Purple Heart and fought hard. He was in the Philippines and ended up catching a horrible bug. When I say bug it is literal. He died when I was only 7 because of a worm he got from the waters. The doctors had no idea what it was and could not cure him in time. I love my paw paw and am so proud of everything he did for his country even if he didn't really want to.

My grandfather on my fathers side retired from our Navy. He was on the USS Guam for a good portion of his Naval career. He served our country for a very long time. He now has stage 5 melanoma cancer in his spine from the Navy. He is so proud of his career in the Navy and for all he did. He shows his metals and tells his stories like it happened yesterday.

I am so proud of all the men and women who serve and have served our country. I respect them and feel for them each day. I'm proud to be an American and have such brave people to fight for our rights and freedoms!
