FINAL NOTE

We're very excited! This is a first contest for both of us and because of that we really wanted to do something different since there are many holiday and changing of the seasons type contests. With Veteran's Day fast approaching in the United States and =beccainlayton's husband deploying to Afghanistan soon we thought we'd do a tribute. Show us what patriotism means to you through your photo. We can't wait to see the submissions from all over the world! Be creative!
