I have always been proud of my husband for choosing to serve our country in the United States Air Force. Our family benefitted from being stationed in three different countries over the years and learning about the traditions, food, holidays and celebrations of those countries. We learned that no matter the language we spoke, we were more alike than different. Thank you to all the men and women who served their country well no matter where they were in the world. May God bless you!

Dear Veterans,
Thank you for your service and sacrifice. We owe our freedom to live in the greatest county in the history of the world to you!

I want to thank my mom and dad who were both US Army veterans. Growing up in a military family, living around the world and then joining the US Navy really helped shape my world. I want to wish my mom, dad and all veterans, a Happy Veterans Day!
