Memorial Day 2011...

I'm so behind,

but getting ready to do some catching-up!

I'll start with our busy Memorial Day weekend! It was full of BBQ's, Veterans, & Baptisms!

We decided to have a little BBQ at a really neat park with just the 5 of us to get the weekend goin'! It was so nice that it is sure to become a regular outing for us!


Then we were fortunate enough to be a part of our niece's beautiful Baptism... I think everyone under the sun has seen the video! :)


And finally, we carried on our tradition (for the 2nd year in a row) of going to the Oakdale Cemetery for their service dedicated to the fallen soldiers! We made this a part of our Memorial Day tradition in hopes of the kids understanding that it isn't just a day off of school... and I don't think we'll be regretting it, as it has been meaningful both years thus far! Next year we hope to come armed with buckets of water and sponges so that we can clean the headstones of those who gave their lives for our freedom! God Bless!
