Happy May Day!


I always loved May Day as a child. Not everyone celebrated this holiday. Maybe it is a Midwest thing. Anyway, I always liked making little baskets with cups and pipe cleaners or ribbon as a handle. Then you would fill up up with treats and sneak to the front door of a friends house. You would try to hang it on a door knob or sit it by the side of the door...ring the door bell...then run like crazy. If they caught you they could demand a kiss or pinch you. It was always a so much fun. Kids would wait by the door or hide in the bushes...and ambush you so you had to be on your toes. Its just one of those holidays that gives you a chance to do something nice for no other reason than its the first of May. How perfect is that.

Please note, it is 6 days to my birthday....lol...I'm shameless!

People out here are always late...ALWAYS, Chris used to get mad because I actually had the nerve to pick him up at the correct time from CCD. I don't know, I think most people in Nebraska are good about being on time.

That is one of the things that ticks me off about your nameless uncle, he would rather be an hour early than one minute late.
Glad the package arrived ok. Enjoy.
