“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?
