Last Monday Darin had a Veteran's Day Program at school. I didn't attend because the two girls were sickies but the videos were good. Darin came up with and wrote the script for his and another girls part about the Marines. He did a great job!
Then Monday night for dinner and FHE my Dad came over and shared with us some of his experiences when he was in the Marines. The boys absolutely loved it. They were so excited that Nathan decorated the table for dinner with all of his Army toys.
Darin made up some posters on the computer and hung them around the dining room.
If I had known what a big event it was for the boys I would have made a more exciting dinner, but I had only made Chicken Noodle Soup with Dumplings for Rose. But we did have Brazilian Lemonade.
My Dad was nice enough to give a talk to all the Cub Scouts in our Ward on Tuesday night too. Ken said that the leaders were all very impressed. They had never seen the boys so interested or pay attention as well as they did. My Dad did a great job! And of course the boys all loved to hear about his experiences with fixing, testing, and flying planes. He also shared how he met my mom, and they even loved that too. Who said boys aren't romantics???
