“What could you do better for your children and your children’s children than to record the story of your life, your triumph over adversity, your recovery after a fall, your progress when all seemed black, your rejoicing when you had finally achieved? Some of what you write may be humdrum dates and places, but there will also be rich passages that will be quoted by your posterity.”

And The Winner Is....

During Russ’ first deployment to Iraq, Megan thought it would be fun to enter a “Chanel 2 and Modern Display Holiday Home Makeover” contest. She had to send in an essay of 50 words or less on why her family should win, she won! She put in her essay, "My Mom is stressed, my Dad is deployed to Iraq and my Nana is on hospice. My Mom is sad, please help my Mom with a Holiday Home Makeover"!  She won our family one large tree, mantel decorations, three small trees, garland and outside lights!



Ally McKay from Channel 2 came out to do live shots at our house with Modern Display and a representative from Hill Air Force Base. Russ made the kids Build a Bears before he left and talked in them, Ally heard it and played it for the audience… Ally and the News desk were all choked up! It was a fun morning and the best part was having someone put my Christmas up (and winning a fabulous tree with decorations worth $5,000 plus)! Happy Holidays!!!
