We finally introduced the boys! They just have to stay in this small pen for a day until they get used to each other. The size just prevents them and getting enough speed to ram, which can cause injury

Random photo I know but awesome back story. So on the bottom left there is words that say Snowball Express an organization as of last year ran by Gary Sinise( Lt. Dan from Forest Gump) . And what Snowball Express is, is a non-profit organization that gets together THOUSANDS of gold star children and widows that have lost a love one in the military. And every year they organize a trip and transport family’s somewhere where they will spend a week with each other and get to do fun things and make friends for a life time. Last year was Gary Sinise first year as head director and he took them to Disney World which was amazing. But sadly this year due to Covid it was cancelled. Little did people know that they had come up with a virtual one this year. But to my point of why I have a picture of Joe Mantegna on here. He did a little celebrity pop up during the opening ceremony, and I knew he did a lot of things with vets, but I learned he is an ambassador for the Gary Sinise program. And it made my heart a little fuller that this man does stuff like this. Watching criminal minds over the years and watching him on tv made me happy, but knowing that he is supporting an organization that I went to for 10 years makes me even happier.

(And also make them for twister too lololol, but seriously)
