How Did You Celebrate Memorial Day?

How did you celebrate Memorial Day? We celebrated the day with some good food, some good friends,and a good game of basketball. The Ellis family came to our house, and I prepared a good o' southern Fish Fry. We had farmed raised catfish, (straight from the Tennessee River) homemade hushpuppies, tradional white beans, coleslaw, frenchfries, and to top it off peanut butter pie. Thank you for coming, Ya'll come back now, ya-hear!
