Remembering.....





It's a cool Memorial Day morning here.....perfect for having a cuppa and remembering those who served.  My dad was in the Air Force stationed at an airfield in Southern England throughout WWII.  He is buried in the cemetery of the small village where I grew up.  So many of his friends and fellow members of the Greatest Generation rest there with him.  It is amazing - and humbling -  to see all of the American flags there to honor veterans.  







Miss E enjoyed this morning's parade!




I linked my card up to the Coffee Lover's Blog Hop - always a fun event!

Linda...I think you're on a "white space" roll. Although I peek everyday I was having issues leaving a comment. I absolutely love the last few cards and they all have the 'white space' going on... So nice, and so CAS. Love them all! Hugs
