zombie party

When my brother and I were younger every halloween after we trick or treated my Dad would dress up and hide in the woods. All the neighborhood kids would come and search for him in the woods and get chased by him! Great memories that my Mom shared with Vera and she decided she wanted him to do the same thing for her! Ofcourse Papa can't say NO to his sweet pea II.! A few neighborhood kids turned into 17 kids chasing my Dad in the woods for 2 hours. It was a fantastic night with our friends and the kids all slept great that night! GREAT MEMORIES!!!!

I never wore the uniform, no medals on my chest.
The band, it doesn't play for me, I am not among “the Best.”
I do not march in cadence; I do not rate salute,
I stand among the silent ranks, our devotion absolute.
If you've not worn my shoes, you do not know my story.
I live a life of sacrifice, my reward a private glory.
I've wept many silent nights away,
and I've kept the home fires burning.
I've worried and I've waited, as world events were churning. I've moved more times than you could fathom,
left more people than you've known.
I've planted gardens 'round the world,
very few that I've seen grown.
I've grieved with new-made widows,
and had my share of scares -- when a ship or plane or man was down, and all I had were prayers.
I'm not asking for your sympathy, (although appreciation can be nice) I did it quite on purpose --I chose to sacrifice.
I'll tell you a secret now, one you'd never guess.
About the one glory that is mine,
it's just enough -- no more, no less.
When you and I stand together as our national anthem plays, I'll fill with reminiscences of how I spent those days.
I'll know the pain and joys again,
I'll know that freedom isn't free,
I'll know I've helped to pay the price –
and that the anthem plays for me.
