Veterans Day 2012

This year for Veterans day Skyeler had the opportunity with his class to have a VERY SPECIAL final project where they filmed President Obama at the veterans day memorial ceremony thing at Arlington National Cemetery. Skyeler was able to sit with all the press individuals like CNN etc. He was chosen by his peers (and later we found out by his instructor) to be one of 3 directors for the project. I knew he was going to be picked. He has done an amazing job in this class so far and his peers really respect and like him.

Skyeler has spend the past couple of days at Arlington Cemetery filming interviews, the changing of the guard, the President, and much more. Each person in the class will then take the footage and have to make a 5 min documentary as their final project. I'm glad I'm not doing it and that it is Sky that hast to. They have A LOT of footage.

We also had the opportunity to have a friend stay with us while she was visiting her husband who is in Skyeler's class. I have had a lot of fun and I am glad that we were able to join our hubbies at Arlington for the last little bit of filming and we were able to see the changing of the guard and just see this place for ourselves. It was a fun experience. Only crappy part is that on Monday they stayed out there late and hardly got to see them.

Here are a few pics of Arlington. Some pics Sky took and I took a few myself. I'm sure you will be able to tell but I will get better!
