Friday thoughts

My random Friday thoughts. . .

I love Memorial Day.  Always have.  Since we don't live near any family graves, we always visit the "old" cemetery in our town on Memorial Day.  There is a newer cemetery and then we have an older one.

Much, much older that has a civil war memorial and graves.  

We enjoy walking around and looking at the names and dates and remembering

That is what Memorial Day is about for me.  Remembering.  Remembering those who went before, those who served before, those who serve now and being grateful.

It is also about having root beer floats--that is another Memorial Day tradition at our house.  We visit the cemetery and then end the day with root beer floats.  What a great way to remember.

Have a great weekend!
