The K Family {OpLove}

Mr. K is over seas, Mrs. K wanted to surprise him with some photos of his girls for Christmas. This will be his first Christmas away from his family.
The surprise didn't go over so well now that someone told Mr. K that Mrs. K was having the photos taken...as soon as Mr. K found out he was antsy to see them! :)

The L Family {OpLove}

I have just become a volunteer with a great program called Operation: Love ReUnited a.k.a OpLove.
I became a member of this great program because as a Army brat myself, I know what it feels like to get the word that your loved one has to leave, Then the date get moved up and now they are leaving sooner then planned, after the hard good-bye you go thru then you worry. You watch the TV, even though you know not to, and you worry. Oh you get R & R, your lucky... in some ways, you get to spend a week or two with them but then you go through the good-bye thing again... Then you get the word they are coming home. As the Army normally works you get 10 dates of when they will be coming in. {your on pins & needles waiting} ahhhh... then... you get the homecoming... The greatest day of being a military family! {Hands Down!!} 
Some Soldiers don't get to come home, some families are never the same after there loved ones leave.... That's why I do this! If {god forbid} I took one of those family's photos before the service member left I would want to know that It was because of great photos taken before hand that they can keep the family going, they will always have something to look back on and remember THAT day we did their pictures! I love this job!
Enjoy!
