Pearls

Remembering December 7, 1941.
And yesterday, Annie and I went to a fundraiser
A foundation that brings WWII Veterans to see their memorial
in Washington DC. 1600 WWII Veterans die each day.
So time is of the essence.
We thanked our heroes.
We were proud to be in their company.
And we made Christmas cards.
To send our troops.

It was a magical evening.

We went to a similar function a few weeks ago and it was so heartwarming to see all the support for our veterans & soldiers. I loved the last card... Mary Xmas.

What a great thing to be able to help pay for a veteran to visit the DC memorial. Great idea, and wonderful of you and Annie to support them.
