Memorial Day 2008

We were so looking forward to a day spent at home together. Thankfully the Lord provided us a beautiful day on Memorial day. The sun was shining, it was 82 degrees and there was a nice breeze. With the gas prices being what they are, we were happy to celebrate at home playing games together, enjoying a cookout, visiting with our neighbors and all of this thanks to those who over the years have given their lives to secure our freedom. Freedom to enjoy a day off from a job of choice. Freedom to be with family. Freedom to pray and worship together. Freedom to live in the best country in all of the world. Oh we take so much for granted and yet on this Memorial day we were able to reflect on all the blessings that come from living in America. Sometimes the simple days spent together with family are what make us appreciate all the blessings we have right in our own back yard. Thank you to all who serve and have served so we can enjoy the blessings of freedom and prosperity.


Hunter was wondering
how he found himself in
this position..."Kayla get off
my back!" he cried.

Hudson didn't let the gas prices

keep him from taking the pickup

for a spin.

Kayla was finally

able to take the new

bike for a spin...yes

brakes now work!!!

This picture sums up how we all
felt by the end of the day.
