Bagpipes and Veterans


^ My dad! A Marine who just celebrated the Marine Corp birthday yesterday!
Bagpipes and Veterans.
Two great things that belong together...

My husband was asked by a middle school teacher to play his bagpipes at the Veteran's day program this morning. The teacher requested, Scotland The Brave. A solid choice for American soldiers! and Robb is toying with the idea of instead playing, "If You Think I'm Sexy", which he actually DOES know how to play!I'm going to take a short break and run over and watch for a bit. I WILL take pictures, but Robb made me promise not to post them. He'll be wearing his kilt and he's nervous enough already.

Have a Wonderful Veteran's Day!

    Now playing that Rod Stewart tune instead sounds like a prank your DAD would have pulled!
    Are you sure Rob and your dad aren't more alike than you think?lol
