“The flag stands for all that we hold dear – freedom, democracy, government of the people, by the people, and for the people.” – Henry Cabot Lodge

I LOVE flying the red, white, and blue. Best part of the tornado for us was the tree in our front yard getting snapped off. Which, gave us the perfect place to put the new flag pole. Thanks to Tori and Jeff for cutting down the rest of the snapped off tree the day after the tornado!

“No disrespect should be shown to the flag of the United States of America.” – U.S. Flag Code

Putting up the flag, taking it down, and folding it reminds me of our junior high days too.

We flew the flag before the tornado but had to use a wimpy attachment on one of our porch posts. The flag looks so much better up high!
