The day after the wedding we decided to relax and once it got cooler out, we were going to go to a memorial they had up for memorial day close to our house. They had 2,000 flags in a field that people could put messages on for their heros. They called it the Field of Heros. It was amazing. We had driven by it both nights on our way home from the wedding. I wanted a few pics of Cole and I in the middle of the flags. The wind was blowing just right, blowing the flags all around us. For some reason out of no where, this caught Cole as super funny! We have heard Cole giggle, but never a full fledged laugh. It was the cutest thing ever!!! He laughed, and laughed and laughed.... which made me laugh and laugh and laugh. I think my laughter made him laugh even more. Jared caught this all on camera. I look like I'm about to pee my pants in some of them, but it was so cute! I never knew laughter could be such a beautiful sound!
And here is one of the 3 of us at the memorial. If Jared looks extra tired, it's because he was. He worked an 80 hour week and was in his brother's wedding the day before.
I think we've started a new family tradition of coming here! It's a great way to remember those who have served and are serving our country!
