First and foremost I want to put some song lyrics up here for Memorial Day:

I thank God for my life
And for the stars and stripes
May freedom forever fly
Let it ring

Salute the ones who died
The ones that give their lives
So we don’t have to sacrifice
All the things we love

As for my outfit the dress I made myself a few years ago, it’s a high low from 2009. It’s good for any patriotic party because of the red white and blue. The red shoes are Sam Edelman, Hat is Ralph Lauren, Sunglasses are Armani, and bag is Vince Camuto.

Here are also some pictures of what I did today on this Memorial Day. Back on Memorial Day in 1996, it was actually May 27th and one of the greatest men I know was taken from our family, this man was my grandfather. I hope he has seen my brother and my accomplishments over the years and I hope he’s proud. Every year on Memorial Day we go visit his grave which is in a Polish cemetery in PA called Our Lady of Czestochowa. My great grandpa is also buried there, in the veterans lot. May you both RIP, I love you both.
