Happy More Oreo Day!


Several months ago we were naming all the holidays we celebrate in America with Olivia. Going month by month, she could almost name them all by herself. When we got through half the year she said "Wait, what about....you know.....that one holiday.....the cookie one?" We were a little confused. I said, "the what, the cookie holiday?" She said, "ya, you know, the more-oreo day". Still a little confused. "You know, the more-oreo day". OH!!!!!! "You mean Memorial Day!" We laughed for quite a while with that one.

On a serious note, we send our sincerest appreciation and gratitude for those who have given their lives in service to this country and to those who continue to put their lives on the line each day to preserve the freedoms that we all take for granted. And a special thank you to the families of these service men and women. I cannot fathom where our country would be without you. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Happy Memorial Day!
