My boys!

It's the time that we give thanks to all of our fallen hero's who gave up their lives for us Americans! Putting flowers on all our loved ones headstones. Visiting our friends that were taken from us way too soon! Getting teary eyed everytime you pass a headstone of a baby or small child! Memorial day is not my favorite holiday, but I get the concept, and am very greatfull!

Every year we meet up at the cemetery (every year we seem to meet later and later). We always "visit" our family members and friends who are burried in the cemetery and afterwards... Head to McDonalds! Going to McDonalds is a tradition that I remember doing ever since it was opened! Grandma and Grandpa Bowler took us there every memorial day and would buy us breakfast! Good times! I love tradition! Anyhoo, after Micky D's we went over to my mom's house and played Beatles Rock Band! Always a good time when good music is around ;). And, that was our memorial day! Nothing much, but great memories, for me at least....
