Memorial Day


How quickly we forget the true meaning of Memorial Day.... more often we think of it as a day off of work marked with warm weather and a bbq but the true meaning, remembering those who serve and have served our country should not be lost. We had a special treat this year when Opa put on his Air Force uniform to be part of a ceremony and celebration in Napa. He stopped by afterwards so the kids could check out his sharp looking duds.Everyone was very impressed with all Opa's ribbons and medals... and even his nametag.
Madison even got to try on Opa's hat.Thank you and God Bless all those that our serving or have served our country.
