I just wanted to mention my love and appreciation for all those who have served and continue to serve our county. This past few years their sacrifice has become even more relevant in my life since I have a cousin who's husband is in Afghanistan (see "Brooke and Aaron" on my blog buddies list to read more about them...Brooke is my cousin)and my cousin also Terry also served recently. Having my loved ones in that position really brought home everything they give up. I just know there are hundreds of families who have lost loved ones and others who live without theirs when they are serving. I can not imagine their day to day lives and I am so grateful for all they sacrifice because I know it's one I couldn't make. Thank you so much for serving our country and protecting us and also others around the world!
My family also always remembers my sister Trisha on memorial day... her birthday was this weekend and I really just wanted to do something to remember her. So, today Derek and Easton and I went hiking and although we got a little rained out and our hike was short, it felt good. She loved hiking and I know she would be happy knowing that that is how she was remembered today. I love you Trish and miss you every day.
