Today is Remembrance day in Canada.
I want to take a moment to honor those men and women who served to keep our country free and who continue to serve to protect others.

this is not a utube video so I cannot load it in the regular way here, but it is very well done. It is was taken on the Highway of Heroes (The 401 between Trenton and Toronto) When soldiers die overseas they are brought home via this route and shown the respect they earned by all who are able to attend.

Thanks for sharing, Star!!
 
Great post, Coach!

Good Monday morning, my Christmas friends!

Another busy weekend under my belt, with a hunting trip (no luck), cleaning out the laundry room, sawing up a huge pecan limb, and 2 trips to dance class. Whew, I'm glad to get back to work so I can get some rest.

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy


Sounds like a busy but fun weekend!!!
 
“The Lord giveth, the Lord taketh away. Blessed be the name of the Lord.”


At the beginning of the year, I posted about all the fun things that would happen in this thread....little did I know the life changes that I would be starting a few weeks later…

On Jan. 30, I found out my world (my wife) was about to produce something that would become my world (my child). I wanted to tell my family so bad, but I had to wait….Wifey wanted me to do so. So I came here and told my “other family” in this post….

“Please, please, please...don't put this on my facebook page....because we are waiting to tell our family because of the difficulties we have experienced....

but....

I'm going to be a Dad…shhhhh….."

Shortly thereafter….the congratulations started coming in….but there was one….there was one that stands out now….

Oh Coach !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WONDERFUL !!!!!! XOXOXOO.

And as I reflect on that post over the past few months, I realized it (the post) was one of many….there were so many other instances of kindness….

The ornament came yesterday and it is SO WONDERFUL !!!
Hi Coach ! That is so sweet !!
You are such a kind man. Your wife is such a lucky lady as are all the students who have the pleasure to know you !!
Coach, I hope you are doing well.


There was more than that to me…but when you started looking, it was mind boggling how many more there was to others….

Nice to see you !!
you are too funny !!!! xo
You are SUCH a GENIUS with words !!! xo
Hope you get plenty of rest and stay nice and cozy !! xo
I hope you have a better night xo
Awwwww...what a precious angel xo


There is more….so much more….I could go on and on….because for CM3, kindness is who she was and it was what she brought to us….her gift to us.

See….in my world….I thought about the fun that would be had in the thread. But CM3….she didn’t bring fun to our world. To her, this was an opportunity to bring compassion.

I think about all the compassion she brought to the board, the compassion she had for her animals (and ours), and the compassion she had for us.

And as we head into the season…I want to return that compassion…

I wanted her voice to be heard…I wanted her to lead us into the season….so I found this quote from her…and I think I want it to help to do just that….

Merry Christmas! ((((((HUGS)))))))) xo

As we head into the season, let’s remember those of us who aren’t here….and how their experiences helped mold us into who we are….

As the days have turned to hours in our countdown, I pray that we all keep the spirit of compassion that CM3 brought to us…and I pray you have a Merry Christmas.

Well said, coach. CM3 is certainly missed. Her kindness and compassion would be well served as we head into the 2013 Christmas Season. We'll never forget her. I'm sure that she is honoured to be remembered in your Special Post, too.
 
Good Morning, MMC!!!!!!!! It's going to be a dreary day here with a high in the 40's. Then rain will move in this afternoon and switch to snow sometime late tonight. They are saying we may see an inch but that it will melt pretty quick in the morning. Then more snow showers on Wednesday but little to no accumulation. I was pretty lazy last week. So I need to buckle down and get some stuff done this week. Right now though, I am watching November Christmas on Hallmark. It is one of my favorites. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!
 
Happy Veterans Day everyone!!!!! Thank you to all of the veterans and those currently serving here on the boards and everywhere.
 
Merry Monday! Huge week ahead! The start of the season is day after tomorrow! I have been enjoying the special post series leading to the season, it really sparks the Christmas spirit.

I hope everyone had a terrific weekend. It's been a busy weekend for us, it always goes to fast!

There are so many Christmas adverts now! Here is the John Lewis one :

Have a beautiful day my Christmas friends!

Good morning to you Bradmac!
Hope you have a great relaxing day! :-D
 
Good morning everyone!

We head into the final two days before the Christmas Season... But, as always, November 11th serves as an even bigger message. Those of you in the U.S. will be celebrating Veterans Day. And, us in Canada will be celebrating Remembrance Day. With both, we honour those that have fallen in service and are no longer with us. We also thank those who served and returned home from battle.

So, today, I don't feel right talking about the closeness of Christmas. I just want to say thank you to everyone that has served in the name of peace. My grandfather, who past away in 2006, was a veteran of World War II. He did not speak about it much, but I know he was proud to have served and assisted his Canadian comrades in victory. On this day, I remember him and others. The WWII generation is slowing dying, but we always remember the sacrifice and freedom they preserved for us. They put their lives on the line when we needed it most. And, to that, I say thank you. I will always remember.

Happy Birthday to your twins!! Hope you all have a special day.

I understand how you feel about the moving. We moved to our house two weeks before Christmas and it was manic!! I hope you all can get it all done smoothly and quickly.

Good morning! We had a very nice, but yet hectic weekend, looking at houses and trying to sell ours. We got word late Friday night, that a contract came in on our house and then Saturday morning, the realtor called and said we got another one. So, a bidding war commenced on our house (that's a good thing)!

We didn't hear anything from the realtor until late last night, the final offer for our home was more than what we listed it for; (very happy about that). We accepted the offer and signed the contract last night - So, we sold our home, pending passing home inspections....Yea~

We found three houses that we like, two of them, we really love and cannot decide which one we want to make an offer for. So, tonight, we are going to take Zach and Vicki there tonight for the first time to get their points of view. Of course, it boils down to what we like, etc....this is the fun part!
