Remember, my internet access is very slow, it'll take forever to upload these dozen or so. I'll try to give you details as I post, too.

Look at their adorable faces! Aren't they just babies?!

Pieces of home for the time they are so far away. Thank you all for the loving work. Let's keep them in our prayers.

Good to see the men enjoying the receiving of the quilts. Lovely feeling to see some comfort going a long way away!

This is a wonderful thing you have accomplished. I know the soldiers appreciated the quilts. I would be willing to bet it reminded them of home. I pray everyday for the safety of our soldiers and their families.

These pictures really brought joy to what is a dreary day. To know these hero's will be able to be warm under those and actually have some color in their lives again is wonderful. God bless your group for doing this.

These pictures brought tears to my eyes and joy to my heart. Each picture, to me, has a different story in the eyes in each one of these men.
