Grateful for Service

Today I am grateful for the service of others.  In particular, I am grateful for the thousands of men and women who are serving and who have served our country.  I feel so blessed with the freedoms I enjoy in this country, and I know that has come at the sacrifice of so many lives.  Here in America, today is Veterans Day, an opportunity to celebrate and honor those who have served.  I add my public thank you to everyone else who feels grateful for that service today.

Yesterday was a good day.  Most of it was just the normal day-to-day stuff of grocery shopping, cleaning, baking, etc.  Last night, we had a dinner for the women at church, and that was a lot of fun.  After that, I drove about 30 minutes to my friend's Eileen house to watch Eclipse.  I had never seen the Twilight movies, so she has been catching me up so we can go to the new movie next weekend!  I'll admit that I only agreed because I thought it would be a fun girl activity!  But I have enjoyed them more than I thought I would.
