This Memorial Day, we remember and honor the brave men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms. 🇺🇸

For me, one name will always stand out: HM3 Corpsman Maxton W. Soviak — “Devil Doc” — who gave his life serving our country on August 26, 2021.

In 2021, I received a Facebook message from Maxton’s mom, Rachel, asking about our wooden backdrop she had seen on Facebook Marketplace. At the time, I had no idea how much that message would stay with me, or how often I would think about their family, especially now as a mom of two boys.

There are some moments that stay with you forever... not because of what you created, but because of the people, the love and sacrifice, and the meaning behind it all. Meeting Maxton’s family and witnessing the strength, pride, and heartbreak they carried is something I will never forget.

His motto, “Live Life to the MAX,” has stayed with me ever since. Maxton’s life and legacy became a reminder to create more, love harder, and live life to its fullest potential.

May we pause to pray over the families who have given everything, and continue to say their names, share their stories, and carry their legacies forward.

Please consider learning more about Maxton’s legacy and donating to his foundation:

When your kid requests a Ninja Kidz inspired birthday party… you deliver 🥷

We rented out a local ninja park for the ultimate action-packed celebration, and after getting home from being out of town the night before, these grab-and-go balloon clusters were the PERFECT quick setup win.

Paired with backpacks, personalized water bottles for rehydrating, bubble wand swords, and ninja fruit blocks, the kidz had an absolute blast. ❤️💙🩷🧡

Definitely channeling our inner Bryton, Ashton, Paxton, and Payton for this one.

Can we do this weekend over again? 🤍
