Memorial Day is upon us, and along with it often comes mixed emotions.
On one hand it is a bit sad as we honor those who have lost their
lives serving our country. This may be an especially meaningful day
for those of you who have lost a family member. On the other hand, it
is also often looked upon as the weekend that begins the summer
months. Although summer does not officially start until the third week
in June; many schools are beginning summer vacation around this time
and the weather is generally also beginning to resemble summer.

It is our hope that this e-book will help you share some quality time
with your family as you take in the weekend. Set aside some time to
share with your kids what this day is about. Then enjoy a family BBQ
and perhaps create a craft project together.

Have a great and memorable weekend with these 23 pages of fun:
