This post really touched me Kim. I still have my Dad's Army jacket, which he had to wear after he got out of the Army, because he didn't have a winter coat. He took off all of the patches though, and misplaced them. Many years later, he and I would go to the flea market every Sunday and try to find replacements for all of his patches. I even wore the jacket for a time, in my tomboy years. Such great memories you've brought back to me today. Please thank your Dad for his service to our country, ok?
Nice post honoring your dad. great pictures. HOpe you have a great day. Weve got company coming for a cook out and may head down to the lake for the first time this year (just down the road).. Its supposed to be Hot today!! yeah! I'll be enjoying eating lots of yummies today.. but tomorrow its seriously back on to weight watchers! happy day! vivian
What a sweet picture of your dad and kids. It's so hard to put into words how grateful I am for all those who have fought for me. Please tell your dad thank you for his service.
In 2008, we traveled to China to adopt a toddler who needed
heart surgery for Tetralogy of Fallot and hand surgery to remove an extra thumb. I'm always happy to share our experience with SN adoption. When I'm not at work, you might find me at an thrift/antique store or estate sale. I also love to sneak in a craft project and decorate our multiple dollhouses with my girls.
Come play with me!

Hope you have a Happy Memorial Day! I can't wait to see the treehouse this week!
The picture of your Dad with the kids made me tear up. And the one of him holding his uniform. Wonderful tribute to your Dad. Tell him thank you!
