I'm still thinking churchy things today.
I stumbled upon a great site, The Graphic Fairy. Adorable vintage images. Free to download. Cool to peruse. Here's 2 of my favorite churchy ones.
And some other fun ones. Reminds me of someone I know very well...
Hello Eloise!
And isn't this so cute?
This is such a fun site. Again, check it out HERE. You will spend entirely too much time there. It will make a bad employee today. You've been warned.
In other news, we had an incomplete weekend. Our Saturday night church dinner was a blast. They're always super duper fun. But other than that, I was flying solo.
I teared up in church today. Really teary. My friend's husband is back from Afghanistan. They were sitting in the pew as a family. It was so beautiful to see them sitting together again. I cried tears of joy for his homecoming but was also so touched by his sacrifice. His return was not guaranteed. Not everyone comes home. And I cried because that's so sad. I know I could never be so selfless.
I failed to recognize Veteran's Day last Thursday. So, I want to thank you all who have served our country so bravely. You are my heroes.
Thank you!

Before I was born, my dad served in the Army. He never really talked about it so throughout my whole life, I never really understood what he did. Thursday was the first time in my life I thanked my dad (of ALL people) for serving our country! He said, "That really meant a lot coming from you than any other person."
I hear ya, Em. I get really emotional when I see families reunited or those who are missing loved ones overseas. It's a sacrifice I can barely comprehend. We are so blessed!
p.s. I always find something to get teary over at church.
Thanks for sharing that Brooke! What a special moment between you and your father.
