Much to be thankful for...

December 31, 2010

Here we were... onboard Naval Air Station, Lemoore, California.

Weather was just right. It had rained consecutively for two solid weeks.

Then, there was finally a break in the clouds.

And what do we decide to do?

Go shopping. In Fresno. Indoors!

Oh well.  :)  I had a chance to take a few snapshots with my camera before we scurried off.

Totally candid, of course!  ;)

 

On the way off the base, I looked up at the National Ensign and it made me realize just how special we as American citizens are.

To be living in a land where kids can just... Be.

Play soccer in their front yards.

Where families can take a leisurely drive whereEVER.

I pray that 2011 continues to bring us many blessings as a nation.

That the war is kept off of our homeland.

And that we are reminded of those who have served in years past.

Those who serve today.

And those who will continue to serve in the future.

Giving us the ability to sleep soundly at night.
