“Memorial Day Weekend with All Families Celebrating”

Memorial Weekend

Memorial Day is a federal holiday in the United States for mourning the U.S. military personnel who have died while serving in the United States armed forces.

It is observed on the last Monday of May.

It was formerly observed on May 30 from 1868 to 1970.

This Weekend is a number one weekend, because all of us, all ages can have FUN and  very good Memories of all of our family members,  who are no longer with us… as they gave their all… for our FREEDOM …so that all AMERICA can now … enjoy today!

When we  the  “Grands“, were those “Young Parents“…  and had a small child or two, we felt so  bogged down and over-worked,  sometimes  even wishing to be free of  our responsibilities. Wanting time to pass much  faster,  not knowing  that we  were only going to miss the ‘Good Times’!

But, we are all  on that  “Journey”, that has only a “one-way pass‘”  for each of us  – No Refunds –  Stops on the way, for accidents and set-backs,  “steady as she goes”… so are you holding on,  for some   “Fun Times?

“Memorial Day,” gives us a 3-day weekend to enjoy with all our Family, young, old, and the “Mister” in between.

So let us all start remembering  to “Give Thanks” to all those… who  have made and did give, for all of us at HOME… that ultimate gift,  their LIFE  for all of us Americans, to enjoy that gift of  Freedom, that our Creator wants for all of us to Love and share with one another, daily!

It is NOW our duty to Celebrate and Share our LOVE for  our Family and Neighbor, so that we  can forever … remain together as a Family and with friends, that  we will always remember  enjoying  that which our past generations gave to us with so much LOVE , that they went so far, as to have paid with their Lives!

We can  never ever  forget all that our  Love Ones, fought for!

Just remembering my Father , who was injured while serving in the Army, a vary long time ago.

My Father was one of those kind that did like to celebrate as much as he could, even though he had many injuries’ to his body.

Daddy was a very good  Chef by trade … as  he could cook and bake everything and anything… and all by memory…  as he  just knew how, and there was always someone needing something made and or maybe just the  directions on how to do… and everything  requested … would turn out just…terrific!

So, as I am remembering way back to some of all those good old times and doings… just try to … Do like we did  in the Young day of  our Ol’Gramps.

Check with all of your FAMILY and FRIENDS  to see what they have in mind to do and then,  add your “two cents” worth of information to celebrate with any and all  family members  in the backyard,  with the standard games.

The best part of a Celebration… any time of the year is the food, and there will always be that someone with the “SMARTS” of  what is good and they will make up a terrific menu, and something for all attending… to help with… just doing your part!

There will always come a time in your LIFE  for GAMES!

When the group has hit a low point of time… as to what to do … and  what would  NOW be FUN for ALL..

Give all  a place to sit and start remembering exciting TIMES in their past…  and verbally replay the  ‘memory game’… just exactly and Who starts with an old memory … WHO can join in… WHO can remember the best of all winning memories?
