Memorial Day Happenings
Starting last year, we started a tradition to go to Provo City Cemetery's Memorial Day Presentation. They have music, speeches, the 21 gun salute, and of course the Pledge of Alliegance. It gives us an hour out of our day to really remember all our blessings of living in this country and to honor our soldiers. I can't get through it with dry eyes. This year they gave each family a blue balloon and had us release them at the end. I know it seems long to our kids, but I hope they are getting something out of it and learning to appreciate what we have here.
