Memorial Day...

9:37 AM |

Posted by Heather Warren

As we prepare for another Memorial Day I ask you to think about the true meaning of the holiday...

Not the amazing sales at the mall

Not the great deals on a case of beer or buy 1 great 1 free packages of hotdogs

Not the first time you're breaking out the boat this year

Not the trip to the beach or to see a concert

Not the long lines at the airport or the traffic jam getting out of the city

Not the 'free' day off of work

Its none of those things....

Here is what it truly is about...

Heart breaking picture isn't it? It hurts me to look at it as well, but we have to.

This Memorial Day please take the time to honor those that gave all for our freedoms.

Thank you to all those that have served and continue to serve our country. We are forever in debt to you and your families.

My thoughts and prayers are going out today to all of those who are currently in harm's way fighting for freedom. Special thoughts to our fellow F15e squadron that is currently making us proud over there right now. Fly Safe Guys.

And to my favorite Fly Boy...

Proud doesn't even begin to explain my feelings about you and your decision to serve your country. Fly safe today and I can't wait for you to get home tomorrow. xoxo

Proud to be an American

I've always loved the 4th of July. The cookouts, the fireworks, and the day off of course... But to be completely honest with you, before the military became part of my life, I saw this day as a day to enjoy a day off work, to enjoy the sun, some beer, some hotdogs, and fireworks.

It has a much deeper meaning to me now... Take the time to enjoy the day, but take a moment to pause a reflect and thank all the men and women that gave and continue to give the ultimate sacrifice for our independence.

Have a great and safe Independence Day!!
