At the cemetery where my dad is, many people plant flowers like geraniums, petunias, and marigolds right in front of the stones. Plus there are lilac bushes and other bushes all over, planted by family members at graves. Our town also places flags at the graves of all the veterans, even in the tiny old cemeteries around town.Mrs.Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00392321745556290343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15265988.post-52109010131128199202018-05-29T12:43:55.093-04:002018-05-29T12:43:55.093-04:00Really very nice to have a quiet day at home, Arle...Really very nice to have a quiet day at home, Arlene!<br /><br />We just had some errand-type things to do, plus we squeezed in a coffee date at Dunkin' Donuts as we had a coupon for a free beverage to use up by May 31.<br /><br />I had hoped to fit in some crafting too, but it didn't happen.Mrs.Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00392321745556290343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15265988.post-56950621161787047802018-05-29T12:41:53.304-04:002018-05-29T12:41:53.304-04:00We just tend to take our freedoms and our peaceabl...We just tend to take our freedoms and our peaceable lives for granted, I think. We can never allow ourselves to forget all that we owe to those who have gone before.<br /><br />Yes, we had an enjoyable weekend with three get-togethers! Friday night, Saturday afternoon, and Monday evening. Plus, of course, church and a potluck on Sunday!Mrs.Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00392321745556290343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15265988.post-39366072541436191812018-05-29T12:39:49.658-04:002018-05-29T12:39:49.658-04:00Thanks, Bernideen!

Y...Oh very nice reminder to pray for our military.<br /><br />Your day sounds quite similar to mine. The cemetery was like Grand Central Station. I break “the rules” to decorate the graves as no flowers are allowed. I need to return today to remove the flowers and the flag,Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618654361869856894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15265988.post-82653515042053447422018-05-29T08:02:54.587-04:002018-05-29T08:02:54.587-04:00We had a quiet day at home as we had no plans.

I had given her a gift at her shower but I wanted to give her an ornament as she starts her married Life.
