Today my family and I are traveling home after a long and wonderful week. We got to spend the week enjoying each other's company, eating way too much food, and seeing my brother graduate. Seeing all of the men and women graduate from the USNA and getting commissioned was amazing. It makes me so proud and so thankful for those who choose to serve our country and do something incredible. Be sure to say a little prayer or send good thoughts their way today, and to the families of those who have passed. There are people who put their lives at risk everyday for our freedom, and we need to remember to be so very thankful of that.
What will you be doing on your day off?
So true, Memorial Day weekend should not be about weekend getaways and shopping. This weekend should be held next weekend and be called something else, something about celebrating the start of summer and memorial day itself should always be on week day like a Wednesday and should be all about what it supposed to be about.

I certainly have been guilty of it in the past, but we have to remember to give love to those who have and will serve. Thanks for remembering that.
