This weekend feels like a blitz. Chris and I took a boat ride on the river on Friday night. On Saturday, we got a garage door installed and then had friends come over for lunch. Saturday evening Chris and I went to see Tomorrowland--loved it.. On Sunday, our friend preached. Then we led the 401 class. After that we had some friends over for dinner and went kayaking on the river. Yesterday was the Landisville Garage Sale. We cooked up and gave away over 3000 hotdogs plus waters, snow cones, coffee and donuts! Then last night we went to a really fun Memorial Day party at our friend's house and I was able to relax in the hot tub!! :)

2. Memorial Day: Memorial Day is a federal holiday in the United States for remembering the people who died while serving in the country's armed forces.

3. The person to remember is Brandon Styer. He is the son of Mrs. Styer who filled in for Mrs. Brito on Friday. He graduated from CV and died while deployed in an accident.
