God bless the fallen soldiers...

Today is Memorial Day and I can't help but think of all the young men and women serving our country and all those who have lost their lives. For many this is a free day off, a day to go to the beach, a day to BBQ, but for some it is really a day of mourning and remembering their loved one that has been lost due to the war. At our church yesterday, they showed a video of a fallen soldier. The video started with pictured of the young soldier with his family and friends, then getting ready for deployment, and then a casket with a flag over it being pulled out of an army van. It was such a sad site to see that almost every lady in the house was ballin' their eyes out, including me. Therefore on this day, I like to say thanks to all those who have served, all those who are serving, and especially all those families that have lost a loved one due to war.

Hubby had to kind of work today, so we spent sometime at home, then went out for lunch to Manolo. It was A-MAZ-ING! Hubby had a chicken milanesa with fries, that he said was really good. I had a steak, ham, and cheese sandwich with mashed potatoes, which also was really good. The food tasted very fresh and flavorful.  For dessert, we had stuffed churros. We tried the chocolate, bavarian cream, and dulce de leche. They were all worth the extra calories!
