Happy Veteran's Day

I'm so thankful for the sacrifices our soldiers & veterans have made for our country. We truly are blessed to have such brave men & women willing to sacrifice so much for our freedom. I'm also very thankful that "my" veteran made it back safe from Iraq!


Steve left to Ft. Lewis, Washington in February 2003 and
He returned from Iraq in May of 2004.

After 15 months of having him gone we were SO happy when he finally came home!!


Our neighbor & his boys put up flags all over our yard in honor of his service.

Zack was born while he was gone & was 8 months old when Steve got home.

We were so thankful for our families & all of their support!!

Our Family with Steve's parents Marilyn & Gary


Our family with my parents Shauna & Norm....I couldn't of made it without them!!!

Once he was home Libby wouldn't let him out of her sight!!
That was one of the hardest parts...seeing her miss her dad so much.


Happy Veteran's Day
We are still praying for the soldiers & their families that are still in harms way.
