Freedom Isn't Free

"On this Veterans Day, let us remember the service of our veterans, and let us renew our national promise to fulfill our sacred obligations to our veterans and their families who have sacrificed so much so that we can live free." ~ Dan Lipinski

Today is not just a day to enjoy an extra long weekend.  Instead, it's a day to remember those who have served our country, and those who continue to do so.  These men and women make countless sacrifices to protect our country and our freedom.  Nowhere is this more evident than Arlington National Cemetery.  If you've never been, it's something that everyone should see.
My family has an amazing military history--we've had someone from every generation since the Civil War serve our country.  Currently, Soldier Cousin is in the Army and we could not be more proud.

So today please say a prayer for our troops, for their families, and for our country.  God bless America.
