11-11-11

Veterans Day was special for us this year. My Dad was able to come out for the Take a Vet to School Day held at my kids elementary school. My Dad served 20 years in the Air Force and flew KC135s in Vietnam. There was an assembly where the kids sang a patriotic medley and then we had some time in their classrooms.


First stop, Grant's class. He was so excited to have Grandpa there!


Next up, Parker's Class. The kids recited a poem and gave them some cards. Then all the kids lined up and shook all their hands and said, "thank you for your service." It was really sweet.



Thanks for coming Grandpa!
