Memorial Day....Take a Moment....

Happy Memorial Day!!!

While I hope everyone has an awesome Memorial Day weekend, please don't forget to take a moment to honor all of the brave men and women of our United States Military who have given their lives while serving this great country.

Support Our Troops and thank a soldier because everyday they are doing something AMAZING for you!!!!


"Memorial Day, which falls on the last Monday of May, commemorates the men and women who died while serving in the American military. Originally known as Decoration Day, it originated in the years following the Civil War and became an official federal holiday in 1971".

**I continue to send out care packages to our deployed military monthly. For anyone interested in making a donation to this effort, please email me. 100% of the proceeds goes towards postage costs & buying needed care package items for our troops. Thank you so much to those of you who have supported me in this effort for over 6yrs and counting. **
