morial weekend is a time to honor those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our country. We honor them by spending time together as family, friends, and neighbors… celebrating the very freedom we have because of their sacrifice.
It’s also a time to kick-start the summer season full of soccer tournaments, parades, and barbeques. Take the weekend to try some of these easy DIY projects and have your home ready for the whole summer season!
