Veteran's Day 2011

Veterans are really important in my life.  SInce I've written this post, a couple more have joined the family:  my newly-married daughter Casey's husband is Matt, who has been serving in the US Navy for a few years; and my baby child--my son, Chase who is in the process of testing to see where he'll land prior to raising his right hand to swear allegiance to this country in the US Navy.

So, this is a post I wrote 3 years ago about Veteran's Day and their families.  I hope you'll read it, and think about the families, too!

And, to those Vets out there today, past and present, thank you for your service!
