Happy Memorial Day


As long as I can remember on Memorial Day Mom and I went with Grandma and put flowers on many graves.

Grandma has alzheimer’s now and I am just realizing how very thoughtful that was of her, not to just do it, but to take Mom and I with her every year.

Last night Big Ran and I put flowers on Dad’s grave, it looks very nice.

Mom had already put a flower decorated lawnmower on it.

But next year, I am going to go with Mom and take one, two, or all of my kids with us, and start a new tradition.

With all of that said, I would like to thank all the serving military and their families for their service and of course, today to remember all of those who served our country and are no longer with us and their families.

I hope everyone is flying their American flag high and proud today!!

God Bless America!!

Salute to Veterans


It’s Veterans Day!

This is a picture of my Dad in his navy gear.

  My husband is in the U. S.  Army Reserve.  He has been enlisted
for 30 years.  I am very proud of him!

 This is a picture of my husband with the
Commanding General of the U. S. Army Reserve.  My husband is on the right.  From
November 2007 to November 2008, he was stationed in Iraq, needless to say it was
a very, very long year for both of us.

My Dad was also a Veteran.  He was in
the U. S. Navy.  He served in Cuba.

  There are so many things I could write
about him, but for now I will just say he was an AMAZING AND LOVING MAN.

Thank you to all Veterans!!!

Good Day To Be Praying


Please pray for our country, our leaders, the families that are still in pain from loss, and our enemies most of all!!

God Bless America

We are so fortunate to live in “The land of the free and the home of the brave.”

Thank you to all the service men and women!

That includes you Big Ran, my hero.

I have been decorating again.  I am a little late since the 4th of July is right around the corner.  But I have got a little time to enjoy the red, white, and blue!

Here are some decorations that I have put up in my kitchen.

 

 Thank you to all of our heroes who gave us our freedom!!

Have a great Independence Day!!
