Happy Veteran's Day

As I traveled to the monthly Benton County Farm Bureau board meeting tonight, I tuned into a special KURM  radio broadcast of a Veteran's Day assembly at one of our local schools.

Students were singing the most beautiful  arrangement of America the Beautiful.

Listening to the music reminded me of all the blessings of freedom 

 we enjoy daily thanks to the service of  our Veterans.

May we never take our freedom for granted.

Happy Veteran's Day!

Dairymom's Thankful Thursday

Even though we have many challenges in our country, we also have an abundance of opportunities and blessings when we  work together to make our world a better place.

Little Rock will be buzzing  next week as the  Arkansas legislature meets to begin the  2015 session.

I'm thankful for the men and women serving in  city,county,state and national  government positions of service and leadership.

Benton County elected officials were sworn in this morning at the Benton County Courthouse by Judge Schrantz.  Mother and I were making family and county history today--taking our oath together for public service.  I'm thankful for the opportunity to serve the public as Benton County Justice of the Peace  and for all the encouragement of family and friends.
