Memorial Day

This special holiday is set aside to remember and honor all of those who died serving our country during war. With the 3 day weekend, the true meaning of this holiday has gotten a little lost.  In 1915 Moina Michael conceived the idea to wear red poppies on this day to symbolize the blood of the heroes who died.  This tradition later spread to the VFW who now sell the poppies for charity this time of year.



For me, we have always celebrated Memorial Day with family and friends gathered around the BBQ.  My family is big on traditions, so certain things will take place without a doubt.  I can always count on hamburgers, hot dogs, grilled corn on the cob, lots of music blaring while playing games of washers and kids splashing in the pool.

The end of the night my dad always makes his annual speech about all the men and women serving our country and we say a prayer for their safe return home.  I am not sure why, but we always light sparklers after he makes his speech.  This tradition has been around since I was a child and we have always looked forward to it.  As a child, we knew as soon as he finished talking we could light the sparklers.... As an adult I still look forward to the holiday sparklers, but I now really cherish his speech and the meaning behind it.

I hope everyone has a safe, fun Memorial Day and if you know a veteran, or an active member of the military or can recall  someone who fought for our country and passed on, take a moment to consider their service.  We are all better off for it!

The Hearts are in!!!

After several months the Heart Sparklers have FINALLY arrived!!!  I know several people have been waiting for their arrival and I am in the process of contacting everyone who went on the waiting list to let them know they can now order their Hearts!

Our heart sparklers have been designed specifically for elegant weddings or a romantic celebration!  We have the biggest heart sparkler available in the United States.  What makes our sparklers so unique is that they burn from one end to the other which maximizes the burn time, instead of burning from both ends at the same time.   This gives the heart sparkler 1.5 minutes of fabulous burn time!

If you have any questions about the Heart Sparklers, please call me at 210-250-0520 and I will be happy to answer any questions that you may have!
