Memorial Day

Memorial day is a special day... when i was younger i didn't really get it.. why do we have to have a special day to remember those that have passed..? i just thought about my loved ones that have past all the time.. i didn't just want to do it on one day and that is it!!! but now that i am older.. it is a special day to pay respects... to go out and to make sure that your loved ones that have served and have done epic things through out their lives it is a day to go and make sure that their final resting places are as they should be and time to go out and hang with them in mind, body and soul... well this memorial day hit me pretty hard.. with the war and a lot of people that i know fighting in it, going out to Camp Williams to visit those who have moved on from this life was quite the site... the above photo is just a taste... there were flags everywhere and this was a time that you can really see people that gave up everything for our freedom... and you saw it in mass quantity.. the way that it should be.  God bless our TROOPS!!!
Over Memorial day we went out and visited my sister and Mean Gene... the funny thing is, he isn't mean at all.. he is actually one of the nicest people that you will ever meet in the whole planet!!! anyways... we went out there Mom, rich and I, oh and Gus and Bails.... and we had a glorious time.. we had to leave ryno at home to hang with the pups.... and he had to work... anyways we had a bbq and all sorts of awesome freaking things... 
Livie and Gene threw a bbq with all of their friends and it was a lot of fun.. the best part was this little girl... i just loved her... but no matter how much i did... Gene did more!! Gene is going to make the best dad someday... he loves kids so much... wait... he pretty much is a big kid himself!!! love ya GENE!!!!  oh and another special event at the bbq... it was the first time my mother had ever seen a keg in a shower.... HAHAHAHAH!!! gotta love the mom!!!!

It was a great time!!! thank you guys for such an awesome time!!!!
