Miltary Service Thank you and Pennant Thank You Card

Hello all my bloggy and crafty friends!
I hope all of you had a very relaxing and fun weekend!
We went to the State Farmer's Market and got some raw peanuts to boil. Every had boiled peanuts? Yes? Then you know how yummy they are. No? Then you need to try it. So good.
We also did some yardwork, grilled out a couple of days, and did a lot of outdoor sitting either in the sunshine or on the front porch. One of the fun things about sitting on the front porch is watching the squirrels play in the front yard, and watchnig the variety of birds swoop down to grab a piece of bread we crumble in the yard a few times a week.

Thank you to all of our military who have served past, present, and future!
Including my family members:

My daddy, Don Ellisor, standing by a town monument honoring
our family for starting one of the cities here.

My daddy, Don, in Spain during his Navy service.

My daddy's home while he was in the Navy.

My Daddy's Mama and Daddy with my Daddy standing and his brother in
his mama's arms. During my Granddaddy, Erby's, Navy service.

Our son, Jimmy, in Iraq, currently serving in the Army

My husband's daddy, Charles, served in the Navy

My husband's Granddaddy, Ashley, served in the Navy

My husband's brother, Bill, served in the Navy

Our nephew, Mitchell, currently serving in the Air  Force

And so many other family members past and present who served in the 
Military, various branches, various wars.

My 6th generation Grandfather, John Martin Hook, came to America
from Hesse, Germany to serve in the Revolutionary War. 
His grave is unmarked and lost. But here are some other ancestors of ours
who have served our country.
Thank you all.

I have not thanked all of our family who has served with photos above, but each and every one are surely appreciated for your sacrifice and service. Thank you to all military everywhere for the daily grind of serving and the sacrifices made from you and your family and loved ones.

Now.... I know you are probably wondering if I'm every going to get to the card I made to show you.....
