Blue Monday - Happy Memorial Day

Today is Blue Monday over at Smiling Sally's Blog.

How fitting today on Memorial Day that we all post pictures of the red, white and blue.Memorial Day seems to be the only time throughout the year that the whole nation is united in the gratitude to the men and women in the Armed Services.

This is a day to remember those who paid for our freedom

To remember those that still bear the pain of warTo mourn with those that have lost a loved one
I am truly grateful for the men and women in the Armed Services in the past, present and future. May God keep you and your families safe.

    Thanks for your beautiful tribute to our troops! I did mention your blog's tribute on my blog because I think you said it all in yours and your pics are very touching. Maybe everyone reading blogs today will just pause for a moment in honor of those you mentioned.

    The last imagine is just heartbreaking...It's so important to think about what the holiday really means and not just barbecuing. Thank you for helping me do that!
