Sundays at Home #160

Thank you for joining us for the Sundays at Home party. Lots of 

patriotic charm here this Memorial Day weekend! 

Memorial Day and 4th of July (Decorating Ideas)

Today, we remember those who have given their lives to defend the freedom we enjoy today. We think of their families and pray they will be comforted and blessed.

In honor of Memorial Day, I'm sharing how we've used flags to show our love for country at home in the past... These ideas work for both Memorial Day and Fourth of July (which is just around the corner!).

We hung a vintage flag from the barn...

With Grateful Hearts This Memorial Day...

How is your weekend going? (Good, I hope!)

After church this morning, we had our nephew and niece over to play. As I watched our boys and their cousins exploring the yard, I quietly hoped that our kids would come to know our property like the back of their hand. How I want their childhood to S-L-O-W. I cherish these days and hope they love being home and being together…

Then I thought of Memorial Day and how so many have served; so many have given their lives, so that we could do just what we did today - worship freely, live freely and follow our dreams. 

With grateful hearts, we honor and THANK those who have served our great country.

May God bless America. And as our Pastor says, "May America bless God."

Happy Memorial Day Weekend!
