Memorial Day festivities

We started our Memorial Day out by taking some time to honor our veterans.  To be honest, I have never been, (at least not that I can remember) to a Memorial Day parade or celebration of any sorts.  So, as a family, we headed in to Fort Atkinson to pay tribute. 
It was quaint and cozy.  The parade consisted of the band...
and veterans.
 
We all marched to the bridge,
where they tossed the wreath in the river and payed tribute to all our servicemen and women.  The birds went crazy and it brought a tear to the eyes of most everyone.
A big THANK YOU goes out to all our veterans!!
