Happy Veteran's Day




So, in other news... Happy Veteran's Day! A few days late... but as mentioned, I've been busy!


I am a Scout leader in our church, and last week we got the honor of doing the flag ceremony at Luke and Macy's Veteran's Day assembly. It was pretty cool. I had 6 scouts there, they did a great job, and then Luke gave a little speech about the flag, what it means, and how to respect it.


Then, on Saturday, our troop also had the honor of being in a Veteran's Day parade. It was also really an honor to be there with all these Vets and scouts and American Flags. What a great country we live in! Myself and Liz and Michelle (two of the other Cub Scout leaders) were there with 12 of our boys - about half - and they walked for a mile and a half, throwing candy and just having a good time. Oh, and Cooper was our mascot. He wore a Bear Scout kerchief and looked sharp!


Thanks to all our Vets and troops for all they do to keep our country free!!!
