Happy Memorial Day!

Happy Memorial Day!  Thanks to all the men and women who have served or currently serve in the military for our country!  I'm so thankful for those who have sacrificed so much to serve, especially those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. 

Last week, we had dinner with Wyatt's parents and aunt at our favorite spot downtown, the Black Sparrow.  It was a lovely evening so we walked around downtown a little bit.  That's when I snapped that gorgeous picture of our courthouse above.  We also walked to the pedestrian bridge across the Wabash River.


We finally made it to a Farmers' Market on Saturday! It was cloudy but nice morning after a brief rain shower came through.  We stopped and got a donut at Mary Lou Donuts and then drove ahead downtown and walked around the market.  It was great to see so many people downtown. 







We went a few block up to Smittybread to grab lunch and a loaf of their Lafayette sourdough bread! It's so cute and was delicious! We'll be back for bread and for sandwiches!




Yesterday, we spend the afternoon and evening over at our friends' house for fajitas and margaritas! It was so fun and the food was so good. One word...queso.



Today, we spent half the day with Wyatt's parents working on cleaning out the garage! It was hot out there today! But we got so much accomplished!


Happy Memorial Day!


Did you know that Memorial Day began as Decoration Day and was created after the Civil War as a way to honor the Union and Confederate soldiers who died in the war.  Several years later it was expanded to remember all people who have died while serving our great country through military service.

For those who have given everything to protect our many freedoms...thank you.

Happy Memorial Day!


Happy Memorial Day!!  I would like to thank all members of the military who have or are serving our great country by helping to protect our freedoms.   Today is a day to remember, reflect upon, and honor those who sacrifice in order for the good of our country...for me...for you...for Americans everywhere.


I found this wonderful FREE printable through Pinterest but you can find it here. If you are looking to get into the patriotic spirit, she has a couple more available as well.  I hope everyone has had a fun but safe weekend thus far!

A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself.

Thankfully yours,
