Happy Fourth of July

Happy Fourth of July to all those wonderful men and women who keep us safe and free. I hope that you and your families keep safe and our thoughts and prayers are always with you. To all those we personally know, who are out there in the field we can't wait for you to come home safe. We're looking after your families and missing you all greatly. We love you all and your families so much! God Speed and keep well. I received the following pictures in an email from my best friend Alison as a pick me up for Matt and I while he was going through * THE SUPER BOWL* ( please read posts from October... That'll catch you up). They were what I thought to be a wonderfully funny representation of the Soldiers that are fighting for us. They show that lovable big brother who is blowing off a little steam.... letting some of the stress just melt away. Remember to thank a Service man/women when you get a chance. The sacrifice is great but the blessings are greater.

You are spectacular, Gretchen! Happy 4th to you and your family. Thank you so much for all you do in supporting your husband. There is no way that our servicemen/women could be doing such a stupendous job if it weren't for the love, support, and faithfulness of their spouses/family. You are such an awesome example to your children. They will learn great things from you. Thank you for being a great friend. Have a great holiday!
