Memorial Day

Happy Memorial Day!
 
 
 
 


I have enjoyed seeing all the posts on FB and IG about not forgetting what Memorial Day is really about. I have a sweet old veteran that comes through drive-thru at work every Wednesday. I've gotten close to him over the years and even went to visit his church a couple months ago. Being around and talking to him has allowed me to see the hurt and neglected feeling that many of our veterans face as they get older. I love to spoil him every chance I get. :) So today I want to say thank you to "Sarge" for all he's sacrificed for me and our land of liberty.

Today and everyday, I am thankful for my sweet family. Although the tease me endlessly I know they are there for me anytime I need them. I have been blessed with more than I deserve. I'm so glad I have special people to share my life with.

This day has been a good and restful day for us. We enjoyed a lil cookout with mom and dad. Chris grilled steaks, dad grilled veggies, and I made cauliflower mashed potatoes. There's nothing quiet like the taste of a good grilled piece of meat!    


YUMM!

Beautiful blooms from my rose bush and peonies.

Delisha and low carb...can't beat that!

I'm also thankful for this beautiful place I live. It's called Kentucky and God sure knew what he was doing when he created this beautiful paradise. ;) Chris and I took an evening drive and just soaked in all the beauty and tranquility.

Hope you all have had a great Memorial Day!
