Memorial Day

The girls have had a great weekend. Pete has worked on the farm most of the weekend, but since we could use the extra money, we don't mind too much!  We're thankful that it's busy around here. The economy seems to still be in the tank in most places! Addie was excited to wear her "patriotic dress" today. The kid has a dress for almost every occasion and it matters not whether we're going somewhere special. We never left the farm today, but she had to wear that dress. After lunch she added the cowboy boots to the ensemble. Doesn't get much more American than that does it?

Luckily the guys got out of the field long enough tonight to grill out. Ali Grace is becoming an expert in the art of onion rings. They were delicious tonight! She did a great job!


I'm very thankful that I was fortunate enough to be born into a country like this! I also recognize that without our brave men and women in the military, this life we know would not be possible. A special shout out to my brother in law, David, and his family who are about to move yet again from Fort Stewart, GA to Fort Lee, VA  I don't know how in the world they move so often and remain sane. I'm glad there are people out there willing to do it! God bless them and their families and God bless America!
