Memorial Day!

Happy Memorial Day!  I hope everyone has had (and is having) a safe and enjoyable weekend.  Today, and always, we must be grateful for the memory of those who have served.

I spent my Memorial Day weekend in Atlanta.  Today, I’m back home sitting by the pool and enjoying the sunshine.  A cookout is planned for later.

If you’re wondering what to wear, I’ve put together some great ideas on a guest post for Andrea!  If you’re interested in seeing them stop by Tickled Pink Blog. A nautical touch is always the perfect way to go.

One last thing I want to mention.  As I was watching The Mike Huckabee show on Fox last night, I was touched by Guardians of Rescue.  This organization trains dogs and matches them up with veterans who are suffering from PTSD.  I know what a blessing Jaycee is to me even when I’m stressed with school and other areas of life.  I can’t even imagine the stress our soldiers go through, and I know dogs must be a perfect way to help with this stress.  If you’d like to watch a clip of the Huckabee show to see more of this touching organization, you can watch it here.  There are many ways to volunteer and many fundraisers to host.  Freedom is not free, and I feel this is a great way to help show gratitude toward those who have served for us and given us our freedom.  Dogs are such blessings.  

I hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable memorial day!
