In rememberance

Today is Memorial Day (and my dad's birthday.. Happy Birthday Dad). Please take some time today to reflect on why we all have the day off, filling ourselves with way too much food and alcohol.

A lot of brave people have fought and died for this country. My Dad happens to have served as a Marine back in the 60s. He was fortunate to not get shipped off to Vietnam, but has a lot of friends from the service that weren't so fortunate, and most never returned home. I feel people who serve in the military are very special people and deserve way more recognition than they get. We have 2 dear friends who are currently serving in the Air Force (you know who you are), and we thank you for your bravery, service and selflessness. So today, we think of you and your fellow soldiers. We hold you in the highest regard. And Gabe and I pray for you often.

Everyone, be safe today.. Have fun but don't be stupid. It is a day to enjoy family, friends and good food. I know we will certainly be doing that very thing.
