may

Saturday, May 31, 2014

I seriously don't know what has happened to May. I was thinking that it just flew by without much happening. I decided to look through my photos so that perhaps I could feel a little better.  And I did.
Life was lived.
Beautiful moments happened.

 i made our favorite chocolate chip cookies, weekly :: we enjoyed a lovely mother's day ::

we celebrated a friends birthday with wine, homemade ravioli and a delicious salad  ::  we decorated the house for memorial day  ::  we had fun contests  ::  i knit ::  we went to a memorial day parade to show love and support to all who serve and have served  ::
we gathered to remember those who served and celebrate our freedom  ::  we swung on an awesome tree swing  ::  i made vintage picnic food using my grandmothers recipe's  ::  fell in love with a wood watch ::  i went out on lovely dates with my guy ::  i knit :: we started counting down to summer break ::  i listened ::
 i picked the iris's from my garden as soon as they bloomed ::  i had a lovely visit from my friend Kristyn ::  i signed up for my CSA and can't wait till next week  :: i knit ::  i went to two wine tastings  ::  we planted basil

  9. Sounds like May was really nice. It also sounds like you were pretty busy. That must be why it flew by so quickly.

    Happy June! :-)
