Freedom

Happy Memorial Day!!

It's people like my Papaw, my Grandpa, and cousin Brandon that I thank God for every day for keeping us safe and protecting our freedom. Thank you to all the men and women who serve our country!!

Today has been pretty low key, just hanging out with my brother and dad. :) It started out really rainy, but now it's sunny...and probably muggy. So needless to say, I haven't been outside today. My dad did make ribs though MMMMM... they were good!

So last night I continued reading, well actually listening to (I'll go into that in a minute) Broadway Nights by Seth Rudetsky. It's fiction, yet not fiction, and it is hilarious!! The setting in New York City and it is centered about this guy named Steven who is a sub for piano players in Broadway shows. It's pretty much Seth Rudetsky's diary that he made somewhat into a fiction. Anyway, I love it so far and it's definitely my kind of book :) Oh, and the reason that I am listening to it and not actually reading it is because I have to drive 1 hour each way to Mt. Vernon 4 times a week, and soon to be 7 days a week (and that's because of Annie).

My day has been boring, so I'll end my boring post.


O beautiful for heroes proved In liberating strife,
Who more than self their country loved,
And mercy more than life!
America! America! May God thy gold refine
Till all success be nobleness,
And ev'ry gain divine!
A verse from: America, The Beautiful Lyrics
by Katharine Lee Bates - 1913
