Celebrating Veteran's Day

One of the things that Jeff and I love about Punta Gorda is that there is always something going on Downtown on the weekends.  There is usually something going on in Laishley Park, which is on the Harbor, and every weekend, we go down to the Farmer's Market and get fresh fruits and veges.  This year, the Punta Gorda Chamber held the Veteran's Day Parade the weekend before Veteran's Day.  We really wanted to get down there for this to not only honor all the Veteran's, but to also honor Jeff.  Jeff didn't know it, but Cash and I made sure that he had a special outfit to wear that day...it was a secret just between Cash and I!  The parade was a little less than an hour, but we were able to see the whole thing.  Cash really liked looking at all the people...he even didn't mind the marching bands and the motorcycles!  Here are some pictures from the parade.

Cash and Daddy...everyone that walked by commented on how cute Cash was and how he was even wearing camo!

Our little Cashew!

Here is Daddy's surprise...I of course helped Cash out with getting it ready!

Cash sure is proud of his daddy!

We also celebrated on Veteran's Day too...Cash wore his special onesie for Daddy and we went out to dinner to one of the many restaurants that were offering free meals for Veteran's.  Even though Cash is still too young to understand what an important day Veteran's Day is, he has Jeff and I here to teach him the importance of it and to tell him how special it is to be a part of the Armed Forces.  I know that Cash will be so proud of his dad one day...just like I am proud to be Jeff's wife.
