For the past several years Skip's Grandparents have been providing a Christmas Tree (or several) to the 41st President of The United States, George Bush Sr.3 yrs ago, when they closed down their tree farm, the honor was handed over to Scotty (Skipper's dad). The first year he went by himself and delivered two trees to the President. Last year Scotty and Cheryl went and were given a wonderful opportunity to meet him and take some picutures with him. I made a wreath for the First Lady, Ms. Barbara Bush. (seen in the picuture above)
THIS year, Scotty took his sons with him to deliver the two trees to the President !! One for his personal office and one for the entry to the offices.
They were such a hit with everyone, that they were invited back to meet the President. SO... today we went back and met President Bush and had some great pictures with him in his office. He is such a personable man, it was truly an honor to meet a man that was voted into office , and ran our great nation !!! And I greeted him with a wreath this year again, he told his staff to have it sent over to his house to be placed on the front door !!!! OH my goodness !!
Thank you to Grandad and Grandmother for planting this seed for us many many years ago, so now we had the opportunity we had today. This will go down as one of the best days in my life !!
Hopefully next year we can bring the kids along too !!
