Land of the FREE, because of the BRAVE

Since today is Memorial Day, its always nice to remember why we have it.  Many of us view it as an extra long weekend, a way to kick off the summer or the day of BBQ's.  I know I have done this many times in the past.  But I truly am so grateful for the country we live in.  And for all the men and women who serve to protect this country.  My Grandpa Williamson is the definition of "Made in America" (Its a song by Toby Keith, look it up, its a good one.) He always took so much pride in being an american. He served our country and truly took to heart what the true meaning of being an american is.  He loved and served everyone around him.  When he passed away in March, we were able to have a 21 Gun Salute at the burial service. It was such an amazing experience to be apart of.


This is my sweet Grandpa's Military picture. He is a pretty handsome fella.

Thank you to all the men and women who serve to protect our freedom each day.
