It's hard to believe it's Memorial Day weekend...this year has gone by so fast. It's also hard to believe since it was pouring rain here all week and it is freezing outside! Not our typical 90 degree weather, that's for sure. I hope everyone has fun plans for the weekend. I wanted to take some time to acknowledge what Memorial Day is all about - our beloved country and those who have served or are serving her. I have some pictures to share today - and I hope you enjoy them. I love taking pictures of flags. Such symbolism and beauty. I try not to take for granted the freedom I have. Take a moment to thank a vet and have a fabulous weekend.
I am a Navy daughter. My dad was in the Navy when I was born. I was born in the oldest Naval hospital in the USA - in Portsmouth, Virginia. (That's me on the left, hahaha)
My husband is an Army son. His dad served in the Korean War.
We are a patriotic family.
Even Buddy waves the stars and stripes.

Two great flags at Memorial Stadium - which was built to honor WWI veterans.
