Memorial Day

I'm embarassed to admit that I always viewed Memorial Day as nothing but the official kick-off for the summer. Beer. BBQ. Catching some rays while lounging by the pool. A day off from work.

One of my favorite bloggers has a husband who has been at war, and she so eloquently writes about how Memorial Day now means so much more to her, especially after her husband lost multiple men from his company in the past year. Check out the photos she links to in her most recent post.

Definitely sheds new light on the holiday, don't you think?
