{ippity} cards for Operation Write Home!!

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY!!

I hope you have ENJOYED your Memorial Day weekend and that you have been able to spend LOTS of time with your family!  I have thoroughly been enjoying my weekend with my family!  We always open up our family cabin and I get to spend time with FAMILY that I don't typically get to see as often as I would like. PLUS my nephew's and niece just LOVE the lake so we have now played croquet, kayaked, walked & talked, looked for fish, laughed & laughed, eaten great food, and simply just enjoyed each other's company!

SO much FUN!  :)

NOW...on to this week's H{ippity} HOP!!

Have you heard of Operation Write Home?

It is SO WONDERFUL what they do...

they collect hand made cards that the soldier's can then use to send home to their loved ones!

How AWESOME is that!!!

You have to check out their site because they

 A HUGE heartfelt thank you to ALL of our SERVICE 

men & women and their families!!

My prayers are with you always!

And I’m proud to be an American,

where at least I know I’m free.

And I won’t forget the men who died,

who gave that right to me.
