A toast to our Hero’s
Happy Memorial day – today I am thinking of our amazing hero’s who have fought for our lives and the lives to come!
Decoration Day was first observed to honor those heroes who fell in battle during the Civil War. Decoration Day was changed to Memorial Day to honor all Americans who fell in battle in all wars. I am going to have a pina colada today and toast to all those who have fallen for us. GOD SPEED…..

Many good men have fallen protecting our way of life and unfortunately in this world, nothing seems to change. Each generation looses its share of good men. It is only right that the fathers, brothers and uncles in our life are remembered for their sacrifice.
So delicious….
