Christmas Wreath

Is it just me or is anyone else bothered by the fact that we can’t enjoy one family holiday without the next one in line being shoved down our throats? Every year the holiday merchandise is rolled out earlier and earlier. Of course this is not a new development, it’s been going on for some time. But it sure seems that retailers have stepped up the pace in the last few years. It’s as if they are in a race to see who can irritate consumers the most. AND I for one am irritated!

Thanksgiving turkey

I hope you were able to spend time with friends and family today. We just returned from my Mothers. We had a huge family gathering. Dinner was awesome. Tomorrow my wife and I are having my Dad over for dinner along with both my sisters and their families. Turkeyday all over again! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving.

Happy Veterans Day

My Dad and Uncle are veterans. My Grandfather served in the Navy during World War II. I would like to take a moment to thank and remember all those who have served, past and present.

Happy Halloween!

I can’t believe it’s Halloween already! We plan on passing out candy, then we are going to make some popcorn and watch scary movies! My daughter is going to a costume party Saturday night, so my wife and I are going to enjoy a nice dinner out. Hope you have a FUN and SAFE Halloween!

Memorial Day

I hope you are enjoying some time with friends and family this holiday weekend. Please join the EzGreatLife community in remembering those who have served and died for this great country so we could remain free. Free to think. Free to speak. Free to express our ideas. Free to be you and free to be me. We may not be perfect, but I can’t think of any other place I’d rather be.

Virtual Flowers for Your Viewing Pleasure

I just wanted to take a minute and say “Happy Mothers Day!” to all the moms out there! I hope you enjoy your day with family. We are having my Mom & Dad, Mother-in-law, Sister and family, my Grandmother and of course my wife, over for brunch. My daughter and I will be cooking up a huge spread! Wishing you all the best on your day. Enjoy!

Just in case you’re wondering, you can thank Anna Marie Jarvis (1864-1948) for all her hard work and effort to establish Mothers Day as a National Holiday. Anna worked tirelessly for this cause following the death of her mother on May 9, 1905. President Woodrow Wilson signed the proclamation designating the Second Sunday in May as “Mothers Day” on May 14, 1914.

And, yes, those flowers were picked fresh this morning in my backyard, by yours truly, for your virtual viewing pleasure! :)
