Wrapped in Love

 We had a chance to visit one of my favorite groups of Veterans and have a little breakfast... we might have wrapped a few in Quilts of Valor as well.




The three gentlemen sitting are Korean War Veterans, one also served in Vietnam .

Sometimes its hard to get a good photo for us, everyone of these Vets family and friends were taking photos. And that is OK!! I love that they get the attention, but I also at least want a photo for me haha!!

Two of them were Marines - they told me that they were friends - so we made sure to have a matching pillowcase for them. They got a huge kick out of that and it made their day. Their wives might have just grinned at me at the joke!

The next day I had a Shoot !

There is a Veteran that we ride with who is one of the most amazing people I know. I had been scheming for a while to figure out how to present him a Quilt of Valor.

It worked out at this shoot that my Quilt for him was ready, and!! a little special something else,
Its funny - I rarely get flustered any more - but for some reason, presenting this in front of all of our friends gave me a little jitter - and when I went to hold the quilt up - I just grabbed the two nearest cowboys and enlisted them 😀

He has a dog that is so in tune with him, He ran up as he felt the emotion - which was perfect.


we had a little quilt for him too!! It was a fun addition to the presentation!
