Memorial Day

Memorial Day: A day to remember those who have died in Military service to United States of America.

Originally, Memorial Day was called Declaration Day and was to remember those who died in battle. Now, Memorial Day has taken on many new meanings. It is acceptable to wear white between Memorial Day and Labor Day. It has also become known as the start of summer. BBQ's, picnics and family events typically held on this day. 
This year, my roommates and I took a Memorial Day hike to "the living room" in Salt Lake. It was a beautiful day and an amazing little hike. It is called the living room because people have literally set up rocks in the shapes of chairs so that you can sit on them and take in the beautiful views of the city.

When we got back home we had a little fun with sidewalk chalk. It was fun to be a kid again!

                                               


Much Love,
