This is a great week to take time every day to count our blessings. With Thanksgiving this week, it is a perfect time to recognize areas in our life to be thankful for. We can move past the negativity we get daily from the media and focus on the positives. Thankfulness will bring us to …

This Friday is Veterans Day. Originally celebrated as the end of the war to end all wars, it is now a wonderful reminder of those who have served our country and protected our rights. The sacrifices our veterans have made, whether it was the time served, injuries suffered or if they made the ultimate sacrifice, …
