Stars Kick Off Summer With Memorial Day Fun in the Sun

The weather’s heating up, and even celebrities need to take a day off every once in a while … with many getting summer started earlier than the calendar indicates.

Tom Brady knew exactly how he wanted to spend his long weekend … ripping off his shirt and ending up on a wakeboard, big grin on his face. Loving that ocean breeze through the hair, Tom!

Meanwhile, Sofia Vergara took a snap with her tiny dog … and wished everyone a very happy holiday — seemingly enjoying the day with a close pal of hers.

Lindsay Lohan, Kate Hudson and Cindy Crawford all posted beachy snaps too … swimsuits on and ready to go for a cool dip — an awesome way to spend the weekend.

Still, other celebs decided to focus on the holiday’s true meaning — a way to honor soldiers killed in battle. Matthew McConaughey posted a pic of himself at the University of Texas Longhorns football stadium with the message “respect and remember.”

There’s a ton of those posts like that out there too … from stars like Melissa Joan Hart, Bette Midler, Blake Shelton and more — another great way to celebrate the day FWIW.
