VETERAN'S DAY

Thanks Lcpl Webb, for making me so happy and feel so proud to be a Marine wife.
I LOVE YOU TONY........ Soldier's Kiss

Remember to include in your prayers to all those who fight and give their lives for the freedom of this country and for their families to know they are not alone.
Thank you for your service to our country. We join the rest of the nation on Veterans Day in remembering the sacrifices of America's 25 million veterans and expressing our appreciation for your service.
Veterans Day is the day America sets aside to honor American military personnel who died in battle or as a result of wounds sustained from combat. Memorial Day is the day set aside to honor America's war dead.
Veterans Day, on the other hand, honors ALL American veterans, both living and dead. In fact, Veterans Day is largely intended to thank LIVING veterans for dedicated and loyal service to their country.




At exactly 11 a.m., each November 11th, a color guard, made up of members from each of the military branches, renders honors to America's war dead during a heart-moving ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknowns in Arlington National Cemetery

Im so proud to be Tony's Aunt and that he is a Marine serving for our country. I do have a lot of respect for those who are in the services.
Alot of Kari's friends are in the services and they are doing well. One is her best friend through school years, she has changed so much after being in the service, I cant remember which one she is in.
Kari's friend came home and spend some time with Kari and got to meet Isaiah. She was so happy to see us again, as I was happy for her since she has changed alot for the better and heard about her Mother doing much better too. I am happy for them!!!
