Happy Veteran's Day

This year, I've learned- first hand, how much dedication is takes to love a soldier in harm's way in the name of freedom. You all know how I feel, so I'll keep it brief. My Grandfather, Elwood W. Forney, fought in WWII leaving a wife, and newborn son behind. (I now know what my grandmother must have felt like.) The following pictures are of Andy's heros. His grandfather, Harold F. Plank who fought in WWII and survived D-Day at Normany, and his late Uncle James (Jim) D. Plank, who was KIA in Vietnam shortly before his 21st birthday. Andy is, of course, my personal hero. He is an Operation Enduring Freedom survivor who served courageously through many combat situations, many of which I don't even know all the details to. He never lost faith in coming home, and more importantly never lost faith in God to see him through. I am so proud to be married to an infantry soldier in the US Army National Guard. He is fulfilling his dream and duty to the country we are still proud to call our own.
