Happy Memorial Day

Today is Memorial Day - a day to commemorate U.S. men and women who died while in the military service. We have set aside this one day of the year for our nation to get together to remember, reflect and honor those who have given their all in service to their country. The "National Moment of Remembrance" resolution was passed on December 2000 - which ask that at 3pm, all Americans take a moment and pause from whatever you are doing for a moment of silence. Please participate along with me in taking this moment of silence and honoring those who have and continue to serve in the military. It is my honor to live in the United States of America. Now, I want to share with you a FUN little surprise that I gave to my SaddleBrooke girlfriend on May 1st - MAY DAY. I made these FUN little May Day Baskets and set out early in the morning to hang them on each of my girlfriends mailboxes. Here is what the box looked like as I was heading out the door to deliver all 12 of them.......
I used the SU Baskets and Blooms Big Shot Die and filled the felt baskets full of candy and flowers.
Here they all are just waiting to be filled......
And each of them complete with candy - flowers and tags.
My girlfriends were surprised that anyone continues to do this long time tradition - and it was my honor to surprise each of them and give them a little BLAST from the PAST.
Hope you are enjoying your day and you are able to stop back tomorrow when I'll begin sharing some of the Kards I've created in May. Keep Living Your Dream.
