Memorial Day is a day of
remembrance for those who have died in our nation's service. I am fortunate
that out of the family members who have served and are currently serving none
have been lost in the pursuit of our freedom. Thank you God.
Like a lot of American families
we spend part of the Memorial Day weekend celebrating family with a cookout.
Ours was yesterday and a good time was had by all. In preparation for the event
I decorated our mantel in a patriotic theme using everything recycled. I made
the vases (HERE), found the trays at the thrift store for $2 each, the picture
of my granddaughter was a gift to me on Valentine’s Day and the little crystal clock
was a wedding gift.

I hope you all enjoyed your Memorial Day weekend!
Here are a few pics from out get together.
Thanks for visiting,
I host a weekly link party called "Seasonal Sundays". This week, in honor of my fourth blog-a-versary, I'm having a giveaway of a $100.00 gift certificate to HomeGoods/TJ Maxx. I'd love to have you join the fun!
