September 11






It is hard to believe that 9/11/01 was 5 years ago, and there is somehting so surreal about being in New York right now. Although I didn't know anybody who died that day, I still feel affected by it. When I got off work today, I went straight to the World Trade Center Site where I found many people, mourning, paying their respects... and I found myself being very emotional. There were beautiful memorials and pictures on display. They had a quartet playing music and there were American flags diplayed everywhere. It was really touching.

It's surreal & emotional just seeing it on TV. It has to hit home HARD if you live there and are in the middle of it. I bet it gives everyone an incredible connection though. Thanks for sharing these pictures.

XOXO!

It has been an emotional day for everyone I think, we had a wonderful remembrance for 9-11 today at AVHS, at first it was pretty noisy with 2000 students on campus, then when they played taps all went silence. I hope we never forget how much was lost that day and how important and blessed we are to keep and hold this freedom.
Love Ya and remember to keep safe..
