I was lucky enough to spend some time with some of my FAVORITE Veterans this weekend... 205 of them to be exact!!!
and we were able to award 10 Quilts to some amazing Folks!!
This was a super fun bunch!! the Two that are sitting - One is a Brigadier General, and one was in the Korean war. So the Gentleman that was in Korea - he is a HOOT!!!
He is a huge country music fan, but he not only knows the singers of old - he's up on the popular ones too! and he wants you to play them from your phone for him. He just cracks me up!!
We had a couple - both Air Force, and she outranked him. She was hilarious - when I tell them about how the quilts are specifically for them and they don't have to share - she looked at him and said - not only can I boss you around, but now you can't touch my quilt.... I died... they were the best!!
Oh!! And on one Quilt - there were some lighthouses in the backing fabric, he came to me with tears and asked How I knew him so well? He (Navy) told me he had a cabin and the whole thing was decorated in lighthouses - they were his Favorite thing - so go me ( okay - if you know me, its really God, but I am taking the credit! ha)
Such a fun day!!
