Occasionally when all the cooking out, drinking, and family fun starts, we forget those that have protected our right to do all these things. We all get overworked, tired, and caught up in the trials of everyday life and people overlook the real reason we have this special weekend.
The true reason for Memorial Day should not be forgotten.
Remember this weekend the sacrifices others have made, the two wars currently being fought, and the veterans that surround us in everyday life. Thank a veteran this weekend, pray for our soldiers and their families, and enjoy your family and the blessings our soldiers have provided us with.
Below are a few pictures and cartoons to help celebrate this Memorial Day, Enjoy!
