Happy Memorial Day!

Today I was thinking about all the years I used to go to the cemetery with my grandma. we would watch the military salute, and I remember how much I was in awe of the whole thing. I don't know that I really understood what the whole thing was about, but I do remember Shannon and I teasing each other even though we would both get emotional when they would have the moment of silence, or the bag pipes or trumpets playing. Now that I really know what this day is all about I feel that it just isn't enough to show our gratitude. I still get really emotional every time I think about our soldiers, and all the sacrifices they have made in our behalf. So to those of you that are in our armed forces, or have family members that are serving I THANK YOU!!! I hope we can all remember everyday of the year to appreciate our country, and those who serve it.

DATE NIGHT

So Friday night wasn't your typical date night, unless you are talking about Shawn and I. I really don't know of anyone more redneck, and adventurous than Shawn; and I have to admit I do love some good "Off Roading." We went out with about 6 of Shawn friends, and only one other girl, it was pretty fun.

The pictures don't do it justice, I was freaking out at more than one point during the evening. I don't scream anymore, but I am getting really good and closing my eyes and waiting til its over, or we roll the wagoneer. (which I hope never happens!!!)

Other than my allergy attack afterwards,(that I am still paying for!) it was a really fun night!
