~ FReeper Canteen  ~


I would send (fill in the blank) to our Troops for Christmas?
 

 

Welcome to the FReeper Canteen! It's great to have you with all of us!!
Thank you to all of our Troops, Veterans, and their families for allowing us to entertain you!

 

 

 

 

 


We Want To Know...

 
 

What would you send to our Troops this holiday season?

 

We're usually silly in here, but today we thought we'd ask a somewhat serious question. If you could send something to our Troops this holiday season, what would it be and why?

Holidays can be lonely for even some of us that are stateside, but imagine being in Iraq, Afghanistan, Djibouti, Gitmo, or elsewhere and far away from your family.

 

What would you want to have if you were so far away? Make it as silly, serious, or fun as you want it to be. Please don't make it political!


 



Have fun!

Do you know that crazy sonboy doesn't like stew? What's up with that? LOL

(course he just asked me how long til it's done!):)

Stew, chili & soup....it's what's for dinner in the fall!

The week is crazy, hectic & busy! About the same as yours I'd imagine!

"The same "free reign" and homefront support our soldiers in WWII had to do whatever it takes to defeat America's enemies."

Amen. I found a DVD of Frank Capra's Why We Fight documentaries from WWII, some of the facts then match exactly what's being done in Arab countries today. Spooky.

Sounds like we have the same kind of week, all right!

I can't imagine anyone not liking a good stew! I'll bet he eats it if it is set before him, what do you think? :D

Big Mama Thornton - You Ain't Nothin' But A Hound Dog

I saw a special the other day. Macy Gray did this tune. She couldn't hold a candle to Big Mama!:)

A PRAYER OF PROTECTION

The light of God surround you
The love of God enfold you
The power of God protect you
The presence of God watch over you
Wherever you are, God is,
And all is well.
Amen.

BLESS THIS HOUSE
 Bless this house O Lord we pray; Make it safe by night and day; 
Bless these walls so firm and stout, Keeping want and trouble out:
Bless the roof and chimneys tall, Let thy peace lie over all;
Bless this door, that it may prove ever open to joy and love.
Bless these windows shining bright, Letting in God's heav'nly light;
Bless the hearth a'blazing there, with smoke ascending like a prayer;
Bless the folk who dwell within, keep them pure and free from sin;
Bless us all that we may be Fit O Lord to dwell with thee;
Bless us all that one day we May dwell O Lord with thee.

Good evening MoJo.
If I could send something to our military it would be an hour with Jesus and an end to this war.
