Today people celebrate it in many ways. Some visit graves, some participate in parades, some have picnics. What do you do to celebrate Memorial Day? Whatever you do to celebrate, take a moment to remember the reason for the day!
What I do for Memorial Day is I dress up in red white and blue and where my Uncle Sam hat. I like to call both my Uncles and tell them that they are great because they are veterans. I like to talk to my friend Sam because he is crazy for the US Army. I love Memorial Day because Blue is a color of the flag and I LOVE blue. Also I have a lot of red, white, and blue stuff to wear. Plus red, white, and blue go perfectly together. But I will always take a moment to just think of everyone who has served us. I LOVE MEMORIAL DAY!
ReplyDeleteOn Memorial Day I go to the Green Valley Pool because it is the very first day it opens and this year I will have a moment of silence this year because last year I did not know why Memorial Day was celebrated. I like Memorial day because everyone gets American flags out and it is sort of like the 4th of July. I did not realize that Memorial Day was about all the soldiers that died in a war and I can not wait until Memorial Day because that is when the Green Valley Pool opens.
