An Evening Among Friends

It's Memorial Day & in a military community we certainly take the time to stop & remember those men & women who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms.  We enjoy our days off, our BBQs, & our time with family & friends, but we know that we would not indulge in these freedoms without the military members who have paid the biggest price -- their lives.  We think of their families whose lives were forever changed & we look at our own & know that we should be especially grateful.  It is a day where we know that freedom is not certainly not free.
We got together this evening with some of our friends here on Ft. Irwin & had the best time.  We live right across the street from a huge park so we plugged up our hoses & made a water line to go across the street to set up a water wonderland for the kiddos.  The guys were grilling, the girls were chillin', & we had all sorts of things to keep the kids busy & happy!  We enjoyed an evening among friends & know that in the military, in an instant, all things can change.  So we make the most of every opportunity & today was certainly one of those times!
