Happy Anniversary Grandpa!



We stopped in to visit my Grandpa Coon the other day. It was a few days after his 72nd anniversary! What a heritage Emily and I have for our marriage! We had the opportunity to take his guitar to him and sing some hymns with him. It was a great reminder of our faith and the importance of family.

Medal of Honor Recipients


Medal of Honor, originally uploaded by coonjamm.

Emily and I enjoyed a great Cubs game yesterday with my parents. It was a beautiful day in the city, the girls did some shopping (while Dad and I sat on any available couch), and we ate at a really unique restaurant called Cozy Noodle and Rice which was really good.

At the beginning of the Cubs game there was a ceremony to honor armed services medal of honor recipients. It was about at 10 minute ceremony that had the whole stadium on their feet clapping and cheering for these men who had risked their lives for others. This is the highest honor bestowed on anyone in the armed services. At the end of the ceremony was a fly over which was really cool.

Anyway...here's a couple pics from our day...

Kalamazoo valley museum


We're at the Kalamazoo valley museum today learning all about area history. It's really interesting learning about checker cab, gibson guitars, stryker, upjohn and other Kalamazoo area businesses. The highlight of the trip was B running full speed into clear glass. I wish I had a video of that.

The guitar pictured is from gibson guitars. It's a combo harp and guitar. My grandpa coon would have loved seeing it.
