holiday

Today is a day we celebrate all of our past and present soldiers.  The sacrifices these men and women have made for our country is truly amazing. We don't always realize that some celebrities are also veterans. 1. Willie Nelson was enlisted in the Air Force in 1950. He wanted to be a pilot but he was medically discharged nine months later because of a bad back.

We are heading into the holiday season which also is really the 'which movie are we going to watch again season'. For Halloween we watch the same scary movies, at Thanksgiving we watch the Charlie Brown special (even though we hate it),

It's no surprise that moms and dads work their tails off trying to provide for a family and run a household. That being said, I think Mothers Day and Fathers Day are important holidays. It seems like over the years we have made a big deal out of Mothers Day. There are Mothers Day brunches, lunches, spa days, trips, etc. and fathers seems to get the same old tie given to them every year.

Today is an important day. It's hard for me to believe that we used to have drinking fountains, restrooms, bus seats, etc. for white's only. The thought of it, still breaks my heart. Thankfully our society heard Martin Luther King, Jr.? “I Have a Dream” speech issued on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, and started treating people equally.

It's the time of year when people are paying it forward. I saw a tremendous amount of toys being donated for Toys for Tots this year. An anonymous person paid for my families meal at a local restaurant and some people's layaway are being paid off.

It is a given that at some point before the new year, you will want to sit back and watch a holiday movie. The hard part will be picking a movie...and then finding it! Below is a list of the top 10 best movies to watch this holiday season.

I've never been good at watching what I eat unless it is me watching it disappear into my mouth. So the thought of starting a diet right now, as we enter the holiday season, seems not only crazy...but impossible!

As American's, we love to OVER celebrate holidays. The bigger the better in my book.

There are ways to be romantic and not spend a ton of money. Todd Harding has done everything on this list over the years. Some of the ideas do take a little bit of work. These are Todd's 5 favorite money-saving Valentine's Day Ideas.

Supposedly, Christmas is a time of pure happiness and love...but in reality there are a few things that we hate about the holidays. Especially when family comes to visit! Here are the ten worst things about the holidays.

We already know that we are going to gain weight this Christmas (and most of us are well on our way). But, if you want to lose that holiday weight - get ready to run...a lot...in 2014

Tis the season to eat. And then eat some more. So the real question shouldn't be will you gain weight this Holiday season it is really a question of how much you'll gain.
