Wow! Can you believe Memorial Day weekend is here? Stars & Stripes.
What symbolizes our beautiful country more that our regal flag? I photograph it every chance I get. It glows with color, light and freedom. What does Memorial Day mean to you?
Beyond the BBQ’s, suds & splashes, this is a time to pay respect and tribute to those who have passed while serving & protecting us. Let’s honor those who dedicate their lives to us…thank you.
It is lovely when folks display the American flag with pride.
Whether it be painted or hung with pride…
The click below is from February this year. Helicopters buzzed over our box canyon here in Telluride, CO.
They blasted the mountain for avalanche control. A very rare experience that happens every few years if needed.
The locals lined the streets and cheered. It was a beautiful winters day.
Let’s flip to warm weather…
These Berry Bliss Rocket Popsicles are inspired by old glory…make ’em for those sizzlin’ days. These colorful & healthy pops are sure to impress kids and adults of all ages.
Serve them for Memorial Day, July 4th and pool parties!
They have plenty of fresh fruit in them to quench all the fun of a summers day.
These Free DIY printables are a festive way to decorate for the holidays!
I love using the stars & stripes every opportunity I get for food and prop styling.
My recipe for Gluten Free Blueberry Lemon Muffins are a healthy treat for breakfast, brunch and snacks.
This will be my 3rd year attending Mountain Film here in Telluride.
You can check out what this amazing film festival is all about from my prior experiences in 2011 & 2012. Lots of pretty pictures too!
Enjoy your long weekend with friends and loved ones.
Stay safe, eat well and play hard!
