Hope you had a wonderful and relaxing long weekend.
Yesterday, I went to a Memorial Day service, and it was a meaningful reminder of the ultimate sacrifice the men and women of our country have given for our freedom. One thing the speaker talked about was WWII pilots and the extremely high casualty rate, and the extreme conditions inside the plane during battle. He also talked about the mid air crashes - as each of the planes circled to wait for the entire fleet of planes to take off and join the group for their mission. It was a mini history lesson - but more importantly I learned more about the sacrifices of the men that serve.
The service reminded me that this weekend is not all about the "start of summer" or the great deals - but something more important to take the time to remember.

Thanks! I really hope I like the jumpsuit as much in person, as I do online.

ReplyDeleteCute picks! "Ditsy" refers to a very small over-all print. :)
ReplyDeleteAh, I was thinking scatterbrained as a person - but a small scattered pattern makes sense! Thanks.
