Happy Memorial Day!!

 We are getting ready for a Memorial Day cook-out!  We are grilling ribs, chicken, and corn along with several side dishes and homemade strawberry cake.  I hope each of you enjoy a wonderful day with family and friends.  May we never forget the heroes who put their lives on the line each day to protect our freedoms!  We are blessed to live in the land of the free because of the BRAVE!!

I have a simple centerpiece out for the summer.  It is perfect for Memorial Day to the Fourth of July.  I have to admit, I have a "thing" for traditional read, white, and blue tablescapes.  Just for fun, I thought I would re-share a few of favorites from years past.

In other news, Seth ended school on Thursday so we are planning our "Summer of Fun!" It's my first official summer as a stay-at-home-mom.  We are all pretty excited!! We are making a list of fun and even silly things to do this summer.  We hope to attend another MLB game, make smores, and begin a family devotional time to our daily routine.  A few "musts" made the list as well such as Seth's summer reading for school.  

Again, Happy Memorial Day!  

Thanks for visiting Buttercup Bliss!

  1. Hi Lisa,
    Beautiful. Happy Memorial Day to you too. I am not sure if you got my reminder email about your Spotlight. If I could get it sometime this week that would be great. I will be out of town until the end of the week but I would like to work on it the beginning of next week to get it ready to post on June 6th. Have fun and I cannot wait to feature you in Spotlight.

  4. I also love red, white and blue decor, so summer is my time to decorate! I also find that my closet is mostly red, white and blue! I may as well enlist in the military!
    You've set a very happy table. Hope your cook-out was a success.
