Happy Memorial Day

May we never forget what our military men and women do for us. May we be patriots who show our love for our country and our military, not just on Memorial Day, but every day. U.S. Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines sacrifice so much for our freedoms - today, especially, I would like to express my thanks, love and appreciation for all who have served and all those who are serving. I am and will always be a cheerleader for you.





To my family - as an Army brat, Sailors wife and most recently a Soldiers sister, I am very humbled my the sacrifice you all make. Mom, you have showed me there is truly no where women cannot go. Kevin, your sense of honor amazes me. John Paul, your enthusiasm about our country and its' future is inspiring.

I pray you all have a fabulous Memorial Day!!!

Busy - but still here

Things have been a bit busy here at Our Dolce Vita!! Which means I've got some great pictures I need to post - but it also means I haven't had any blogging time. Im planning to change that very soon though!




Speaking of being busy, I found this quote the other day and just love it - it's exactly where I am in life right now...

"If you're not doing something with your life, then it doesn’t matter how long you live. If you're doing something with your life, then it doesn't matter how short your life may be. A life is not measured by years lived, but by its usefulness. If you are giving, loving, serving, helping, encouraging, and adding value to others, then you're living a life that counts!"
- John C. Maxwell

Friends - I hope you all have a fabulous Memorial Day weekend !
