Posting once a month is just not going to cut it. Not sure how to make updating my blog more manageable, but something has to be done to improve updating my posts.
Project 365 is coming along. I'm behind, but then so is Becky Higgins. While she is not that far behind it was nice to know that she is not perfect either. She is however, quite the inspiration. Her blog post on Friday got me motivated to work on updating my Project 365 and trying to catch up.
Yesterday we worked in the yard and managed to plant 4 Hydrangea's, 3 Knock Out rosebushes and several of the pots on the deck. Now if only the rain would stop.
Since today is Memorial Day, I would like to thank all veterans and those four men in my family that have sacrificed many hours (and their lives) to serve our great country. Mitch's father, Rebel, was a career Naval officer and was at Pearl Harbor when the Japanese bombed on Dec. 7th, 1941. My father, Fred, was a career Air Force officer and served in Viet Nam. Mitch, a career Naval officer like his father was blessed by not having to fight in any wars. My brother -in-law, Ron is still serving in the Air Force and is currently the Air Defense Attache' in Brazil. He also did a tour for the 2nd Gulf War. To these wonderful selfless men I give my whole hearted thanks to serving your country and helping to perserve our peace and way of life.

A lovely post, Judy :) Memorial Day is much more than the start of the summer season, picnics, and a day off work. It is a time to reflect on and thank the countless men and women who served to protect our country. Freedom is not easily won.
