What a treat and bye for a few weeks....

Ok, so if you are a country music fan, YEP that is her..... If you are not, this is Jo Dee Messina and I. I was so very blessed to have been given the opportunity to meet her but that wasn't even the real blessing.... more to follow. A few dear friends were able to have a guest when they were invited to meet her and invited me to join them. I jumped like a school girl! I have loved her music for years and hey, she is representing the red heads out there! :) Anyways, she was so nice and down to earth. Jo Dee had come here to perform a free concert for Fort Drum and most of the people that were backstage to meet her were families of soldiers that had been injured while serving. I had the opportunity to talk with a few of them and what a blessing! These families truly have sacrificed and are true heroes! Even living here on Fort Drum I am sheltered from some of what I realized to be true that day and I will surely not forget it!

My family is headed out on a vacation for the next few weeks so I will be missing from my blog and will surely miss visiting all of yours but have a blessed next few weeks and I will blog with all of you soon! = )
