Thanks


Veteran's Day has already passed, but I wanted to post a few pics of my cousin, who is a Captain in the US Army. He's currently overseas on his 2nd tour of duty protecting our freedom, along with thousands of other brave men and women. I'm so thankful for our soldiers. I didn't fully understand the risks involved until my cousin was sent overseas. I think about him often..praying. It's hard to watch the news and not worry.


How brave our soldiers are.
I'm so grateful for them.
So very, very grateful.


My cousin is a graduate of West Point.
Here, he's getting ready to shake President Bush's hand after receiving his diploma.



Army buddies



God bless America



My cousin has been asked if it's dusty over where he's stationed.
I think this answers the question..haha



I'm just so darn proud of him!




We love you! Thanks for your service. You're in our prayers everyday.
