Chill Bumps On Me......

Wow....I have really missed visiting all of you these past few days....I have been soooo BUSY!  ....I have only been on the computer to post and that is about it!

I know I'll find the time to catch up this week....Sure hope I haven't missed signing up for any good Give-Aways!!!  Love these things....



 Sam and I attended our 40th High School Class Reunion this past weekend.......(Yes, Sam and I graduated together)

We had a wonderful Reunion...

(I'll have more about the reunion a little later in the week)

******

I have a few pictures that I want to share with all of you...

I am so very proud to live in the small town/city of
Chandler....

It is a wonderful thing when people take pride in their town/city. 



These flags were put up last week.....

I'm not exactly positive, but I believe that there are 300 flags flying on this empty lot in the downtown area.




Let me tell you, this is a beautiful sight to see when driving through our "City with a Heart."
It really puts chill bumps on me....We are so Blessed!    These flags are in honor of the men and women that fight for our freedom every single day...AND in memory of those that have given their lives for our FREEDOM.


I know that you too would be in AWE if you were able to see all 300 or so of these flags blowing in the wind....A beautiful sight to see!!




The above flag is what hangs from the light poles in town....
They stay up all year long with the exception of Christmas time.....(Christmas decorations have to go up)


I am extremely proud to live here....

It is wonderful to know that the citizens of our Town/City  have so much Pride for our Country!

But.....After all,  we are the "CITY WITH A HEART"

Sweet Blessings,

Shug
