Veterans Day



On Veterans Day we honor all,
who answered to a service call.
Soldiers young, and soldiers old,
fought for freedom, brave and bold.
Some have lived, while others died,
and all of them deserve our pride.
We're proud of all the soldiers who,
kept thinking of red, white and blue.
They fought for us and all our rights,
they fought through many days and nights.
And though we may not know each name,
we thank ALL veterans just the same.

National Sisters Week - June 29, 2011


My sister is a nuisance...
My sister is a pain.
If it were up to me
I'd leave her outside in the rain.

But don't you tease my sister
or be mean to her at all,
'cause I'll stick up for my sister
'cause she thinks I'm 10 feet tall.

June 29, 2011 begins National Sisters Week
Your sister is your first friend in life. No one can understand your crazy family like your sister. Even if you don’t get together or talk as much as you should, she will always remain your friend. She will hold your hand for a little while but your heart forever. It’s National Sister Week. Re-post if you have a sister you love with all your heart.

National Doughnut Day - Ode To The Donut


Oh! How I love donuts,
so sticky,
so sweet.
With a tall glass of milk,
or a hot cup of coffee
what a delicious treat.
If you ask me to share,
I'll simply say
"please, take a seat"
there's no better way
to the start of the day.

I have recently discovered a yearly celebration that, until now, I didn't know existed. 
The first Friday in June is National Doughnut Day. 
Now there's a day I can happily celebrate each year.

June 21st - The Official Day Of Summer



 Today is officially the first day of summer for 2011.


 Needless to say I LOVE SUMMER!!! 
Everything comes alive when the SUN comes out.


So grab a tall, cold glass of iced tea, beer or any other thirst quencher,


your favorite sunscreen (Hawaiian Tropic, of course),


an Ipod full of  good music,
and head off to a quiet corner of your back yard or the beach to relax.

I hope you enjoy this first day of summer!

What do you love about summer?

Happy Father's Day!


"Anyone can be a father, but it takes a special man to be a dad." "Dad" is not just someone you are... It's something you do... from your heart.

Happy Father's Day to all the men out there who fill this role for a child.

You are loved!

Enjoy your day.

Memorial Day Monday


Happy Memorial Day.

While enjoying a beautiful day, a day off and a BBQ, let's not forget what today is about.
Thank you to all our past, present and future military for the sacrifices you make every day in protecting this country and making it the best place in the world to be.

God Bless America!
