Happy Memorial Day friends!! I wanted to take a break from our festivities to remember why we celebrate this day. Thank you to the incredibly brave men and women who sacrifice every day to keep our country safe. We are so grateful for you, and for those who have made the ultimate sacrifice.

Readers, I hope you are getting everything you need out of your three day weekend, whether it’s rest, relaxation, fun, productivity, or a combination. For those of you on the road (and everywhere else, too!) please stay safe. I plan to celebrate my best friend’s birthday today, spending some time in the pool and maybe eating a little barbecue.

Readers, how do you plan to spend your Memorial Day?
