Well it is far to long since I updated the family blog and so much has happened. We have had birthdays, weddings, anniversary's and graduations....trips to Mexico and a wonderful visit from my Sister Denise from Atlanta. 

But first I want to pay tribute to all those who sacrificed there youth and often their lives so as we could have so much. 

In the US we honored those on Memorial Day.
