"Best of Carolina" and a Happy Memorial Day to You

Edited to Enter in "Works for Me Wednesday at Kristen's!" and I Love Thursdays @ DiaperDiaries because this is that special! That's right.... quite possibly the first ever. This works for me because the Live Blogging Beach Getaway begins tomorrow! Join us! Giveaways each day! Loves of the "Best of Carolina" fun!

Welcome! Happy Memorial Day! If you didn't see it check out my post honoring those who served and those who gave all here.

Bike rides, school - yes, did you say Home School Moms hold school on a Holiday. Here's the beauty, we can run our schedule to work for us. And since we are wrapping up our school year, we'd rather hold classes today and head to the beach one day on Thursday. Make sense, an extra day at the beach - you bet! In fact, we're holding "Field Day" at the beach! Imagine that - talk about the ultimate Field Day! My students have worked hard, we're all ready! Speaking of the beach...

This Thursday, May 28th begins the first ever "Best of Carolina" Live-Blogging/Twitter Beach Getaway by Carolina Mama! This is huge and it's growing. This is going to be awesome at the North Carolina beach getaway Ocean Isle Inn resort locale.

Since our readers can't come along, we're hosting you right here. You'll get all the latest "Best of Carolina" updates and information with fabulous, amazing Giveaways so you too can experience the "Best of Carolina!" wherever you are.

Check back early and often and if you are a business owner, please feel free to join us by emailing me at carolinamama1@gmail.com to enter your own Giveaways and products to promote your business!

What are you up to Memorial Day and next weekend? What's your menu look like? We're grilling veggie hot dogs - oh, they're great without all the guilt - grilled corn on the cob ;) watermelon, and more. Happy Memorial Day to the USA!

Here's some Saturday linkage I had to share. When I read Lee Woodruff's book, "In An Instant" - it was amazing and compelling all at once. I still remember with vivid awareness the story as told by the Lee and her husband, Bob Woodruff, the news reporter who was injured while covering the war in Iraq.

Now, I was amazed to discover the Bob Woodruff Foundation and their work through Tweet to Remind @ Remind.org. We can all join in this amazing fund raiser to support our solders and their families.

For you Twitter hold-outs, now is your chance to join the Twitter party. It's just another great way to use this connection. You can read more about the Foundation by their friend here. If you go to Twitter and join in, use the sign #tweettoremind and help donate too. :)

Just another way to honor our troops for Memorial Day! God Bless the U.S.A.!!!

Warmly,
