Happy Memorial Day...


I hope you are having a lovely long weekend. :)  
We will be heading to the cemetery this afternoon...they do an amazing program celebrating our veterans and Memorial Day.  Plus they have over 1500 flags lining the drives...it is breathtaking.

I wanted to do a layout for today that celebrated the life of my Dad, who passed away last year.
He was so very proud of being a WWII veteran, and his service in the Army.


The flags in the picture were little ones that were at his grave site.   Those are some of his medals in front of the layout.  


I used the blue papers from the Everyday Moments line with some reds from World Traveler...perfect for Memorial Day or the 4th of July.  The brads are from those two lines too.   It's a little hard to see, but the dictionary paper is the 'freedom' page from an old dictionary.  I accented it with a bling circle.

Have a wonderful day...and a huge thank you to all those serving our country, past & present!
