How proud I am of my father who served our country during WWII. My husband served in the Persian Gulf War, as a Hebrew linguist. He graduated with honors and was immediately sent to the NSA (National Security Agency.)
Darren received a Joint Service Achievement Medal for something he did. But, he can't tell me or "He'd have to kill me." LOL. Seriously, I have never found out what he did to get this medal, because it is "TOP SECRET" funny huh.
We still had a big party for him in his honor. I de-
cided to make a wall hanging quilt for him to place
this medal on. So if you look close to the quilt you
will actually see that I cut up some of his uniforms
and used that material for parts of the quilt. The stars
running along the bottom are the different scraps of uni-
forms. He was totally surprised by the
party and quilt. I love my sweet husband of 22 yrs.
And so proud to be his wife. (My husband is the one
on the left.)
Wanting my laundry to mean something! Getting my clothes dirty, because I did something fun, different,and or exciting.
