For military families, home is where your heart is. So….we wrote, or kind of rewrote, a very special song just for you and added a few pictures from our Holiday Meals for Military program. Thank you for letting us be a small part of your holidays this year. We wish you a joyous season!
Ahem…here goes…
Oh….
There’s no place like home for the holidays,
For no matter how far away you roam
(and our military families often roam far)
When you long for the sunshine of a friendly gaze,
For the holidays – you can’t beat home, sweet home
(BUT we try to make it easier with our Holiday Meals for Military events)
We met some families down in Tennessee…
and then we were headin’ for…
Old Dominion with some stops at Dix and Drum…
From Virginia we went travelin’
Down to Dixie’s sunny shore…
From Atlantic to Pacific ….
Gee, the traffic was terrific
(…to our Holiday Meals for Military events)
We know there’s no place like home for the holidays,
‘Cause no matter how far away you roam
If you want to be happy in a million ways,
For the holidays – you can’t beat where you call home.
