As Memorial Day approaches, I hope we can all take a moment to reflect on, and honor the sacrifices made by so many. Let us never take our freedoms for granted and let us always be thankful for those who defend and protect us.
My two oldest boys, currently serving.
My Dad, taken during WWII
Feel free to add your own pics or stories about your family members who served.

Americans sleep peacefully in their beds at night because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.

Remember what they were fighting for... as we remember them.

Thanks to all who have served or are serving today.

Let's not forget in all the fun this weekend to take a moment to give thanks and remember all those men and women who have sacrificed so much to give us the freedoms that we enjoy.
Give the boys my love, jdubbya, and remind them that someone in VA thinks of them with affection and thanks them for their service.
And thanks too, to you and your wife, and the families of all those who serve.

Placed flags on my father & grandfather's graves today. The American Legion beat me to it, but I still put mine up anyway.
