Memorial Day

Of course, I forgot the camera.

This morning we went to a local Memoral Day program where Elliott's mom sang with her chorale group. The program was very meaningful, the singing was beautiful and the after-program donuts were quite yummyrific!

Lilly was decked out in red, white and blue and had a little flag to hold. Her cuteness was captivating, hence my sadness over forgetting the camera.

It made me think though about how I want to make this a family tradition for us. Not only because grandma's group usually sings there, but so that Lilly grows up with a better understanding of the price that has been paid for our freedom.

So, from our family today, we say thanks in honor of the men and women who have given their lives in battle, and to families who have lost their loved ones in service to our country. We are grateful!
