“As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.” -John F. Kennedy

Today on Veteran’s Day I wanted to take some time to thank all our local and far off heroes who have given their blood, sweat, and tears to this country. To our very own hero, I cannot say enough how important you are to our family. The boys adore you, look up to you, and want to be with you as much as they physically can. Your presence no matter how short of a visit always makes them beam with excitement. It is through your service that I have learned so much about what it means to live by honor, loyalty, and passion for the greater good. Thank you for being you and for always being there for us. These photos are just a visual reminder of the impact you have on our lives. Thanks again for everything and for hosting us during our October break.
