Honor Our Vets

This week we will be celebrating the service of the men in women who have served our country in uniform. We are especially celebrating our family members who are veterans. The following note was sent home to parents Friday.


Today, we talked of Caleb's great grandmother, and the service she performed to help our country while the United States was at war. Take a look at her picture and read the interesting story about her career in the military.
