Veterans Day

The boys did not have preschool yesterday, so we decided to make the most of it and go to the Veterans Day Parade downtown. We sat on the curb and they were both mesmerized by the marching soldiers, military vehicles, fire trucks and marching bands. I even got a little teared-up when the older veterans rode by in vans from the veterans home. The parade was a great follow-up to election day last week when Tate and Miller accompanied me to vote, there were a lot of lessons in what it means to be an American.
