Veterans Day

Hi Everyone,

I'm back and will hopefully be posting every day this week.  Today in the US, we are observing Veteran's Day.  Originally it was Armistice day and we still have services at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.  Of course, these days, it is more about selling mattresses.  Or is that Presidents Day?  I can't keep track.

Here at our house, I am hugging my favorite Veteran, and taking time to recognize the others.



 
This is my guy back a few years ago when he was in Afghanistan. 
 
 
While I think that the whole "Keep Calm" thing is getting a bit tired, I really do like this one:
 


I'll be back tomorrow with some quilting! 

Have a great day,
JoAnne

  4. Thank your vet for me. I wish I could hug mine today. At least he's on home soil. I wonder if they were in Afghanistan together.
