PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN!!!!!

We had a Liberty Festival on base today, to celebrate the 4th; It all happened on the flight line. There were planes to look at, a bounce house for the kids, face painting, hotdogs & hamburgers, some Korean entertainment, lots of friends to hang out with, and fireworks!!!!! I must say that after tonight, I'm feeling so proud to be an AMERICAN; my patriotism is soaring! During the fireworks, there were patriotic songs being played, and we were with our "Osan Family", it was great. Really, I'm so thankful for our independence and for the freedoms we have as Americans. I am thankful for our friends here, and I am thankful for the experience of living in another country. I guess, I am just feeling pretty thankful tonight. I think I will go kiss my children as they are sleeping, I am so thankful for them, and I am so thankful for our family back in the States! Love you all!!

I LOVE this guy!

Our friend Steve and Jamison; he held him during the fireworks (which he watched), and held him on our walk home; Jamison fell asleep in his arms, in the football hold........he had a big night!
