Memorial Day: Simple & Creative Ideas

May 27, 2013 by Courtney 4 Comments

Happy Memorial Day to you all. As we remember all those who made the ultimate sacrifice so we may live in a free country, I hope you are taking time to giggle, run around, relax, and take it all in. We are doing just that. We started the morning with fresh squeezed orange juice picked from the orange groves. Our kiddos love to ride bikes to the orange trees so they can pick them and make juice. They were few and far between, but we managed to pick enough so that everyone could enjoy a glass. I couldn’t let Memorial Day pass without digging up some super cute ideas I stumbled upon.  I figure if you like them, you can stash them away for the Fourth of July! fruit cones from see vanessa craft Red, White, and Blue Nutella Napoleons | Babble

In remembrance of all who lost their lives serving this wonderful country. We are truly blessed.

    The angel food cake with the berries is such a great idea – I am definitely going to remember that for the 4th of July. Thanks for sharing 🙂
