Did everyone have a cookout, picnic, or a party today. Memorial day is like the kick off of summer but I hope everyone remember to say their prayers for those who have served and are serving and those who paid the price of their lives for our freedoms..I did...I love seeing troops in uniform it makes me smile or tear up depending on my mood..I teared up alot when Steph was in Iraq and I'd see a uniform but right now it makes me smile..If I'm in a situation where I can speak to someone in uniform I thank them too. (I can almost turn any situation into a "talking" one if someone will stop long enough to listen to me.) Steph said one time that people she didn't know would tell them thanks for their service, or thanks for what you do and it means alot to them to know people care. Being here the past few weeks I see uniforms everywhere and no I haven't talked to all of them..
I was very American today. I watched baseball (go Braves) fixed brownies (didn't have the stuff for apple pie and "tried" to bbq chicken.(The Georgia afternoon monsoons happened again today about 5ish and lasted till after 9, doesn't mean they are over they've just stopped for now.) so I had to put the BBQ chicken in the oven and bake it. It turned out ok anyway.
I never really know if anyone is reading my words of wisdom or not but a couple of people this week told me they knew we were close by cause of the blog or found out about Steph's surgery update so it's nice to hear that people are reading and enjoying it. I like letting you guys know what's up with us, sometime it's imformative and sometimes just me rambling.
We'll be here at least another week. The rainy afternoons are putting a frown on Reid's face and I believe there is a chance of rain the rest of the week. We've had a good spring as far as the weather has been up till this week but it looks like alot of the country is having lots of rain right now.
I hope everyone had a great May and looking forward to a great June. We'll be on the move a lot more once we leave GA so visit often and see where we're at and what we're up to.
