Yuba Sutter Veteran's Day Parade

The kids and I went to the local parade in honor of all the soldiers that have fought and still fight for our country. I wanted them to know why there was no school today and realize what a special gift all the veterans have given to us as Americans. The family sitting by the curb brought tears to my eyes, I just couldn't even imagine sending my hubby away to war. It takes special people to be able to dedicated there lives to fighting for us. Thank you to all the family's and soldiers and God Bless.
