We know today is about honoring our fallen soldiers, those who gave their lives for us, but we also wanted to honor our soldiers who were willing to give it all. The pictures above are of my Grandfathers , they both served in Vietnam and the other picture is of my Great Grandpa who served in WWII . We have Military men in our family that go back at least 5 generations and we are proud of that. Thank you for being willing to risk it all, for giving up your nice warm beds and the arms of those who love you, to go to a foreign land and serve our country.

My new plant..... Anyone know what it is? Mom, Dad, Kari... any of the Paine family is not allowed to guess because Mom and Dad know what it is and Kari knows what it is and Becca saw my plant and she has had one. Everyone else can guess.
