AMAZING!

TODAY I got to have what I considered one of the most amazing experiences of my life! I mean it is right up there with getting married and having our children.
WE were invited to a celebration breakfast to WELCOME Kent home from Iraq! That's right one of my favorite people in the whole world came home this week from Iraq and he made it safe and sound.
VETERANS in Kent and Rashells ward hosted a breakfast in his Honor to say THANK YOU, and they invited immediate family to share in this.
THERE was a flag ceremony where there were veterans from each branch of the service there. They carried in there branches colours with there song and saluted not only there flag but turned and saluted Kent 5 flags, 5 songs, 5 personal salutes.
THIS hard headed Canadian cried silently as she watched those men who fought not only for there country and families, but for other countries as well to enjoy the freedom and protection that we now have.
AMAZING is all I can say, simply AMAZING.
THANK YOU KENT! for your willingness to fight so that we may continue to enjoy the freedoms that we have. Your personal sacrifice does not go unnoticed in our house.
THANK YOU RASHELL! for sharing your amazing husband with the rest of the world, for being the TROOPER that you are, the sacrifices that you have made, I stand in awe of. THANK YOU Logan, Anya, and Mark also for sharing your Daddy. He is our hero.
