Today is Veteran's Day. I have such strong feelings about this holiday, that I really didn't appreciate until I was an adult. I don't think you truly start to really understand until then what the men and women who serve our country, during war and peace, do...what it takes to keep us free. So - thanks to everyone who has served, but especially....my PaPa who was in the army during WWII, my daddy who was in the Navy during Vietnam, my brother-in-law Josh who is a Marine serving in Iraq, my brother-in-law Jason who is in the Navy on his way back from the Persian Gulf, my friend Jesse who has been in the Army since high school, and my friend Larry who was in the Navy, a SeaBee during Desert Storm. I am so, so proud of them. And to any of you or your family that has served - it's appreciated more than you know. Saying "thank you" just doesn't seem enough.
