Happy May Day!

Prom Kids

I've always liked the month of May.  When I lived in Indiana, besides the weather being so nice with no bugs yet and nice temps, we had all of the excitement of the Indianapolis 500 Race.  Here in Iowa, some people still do May baskets.  (see my post where we made some last year)  The lady who taught us how to make some with milk cartons and tissue paper last year brought this surprise to me today.  She used a plastic champagne glass upside down with the newer, pretty tulip cupcake liners and a white paper cup inside to hold the candy.  She added some silk leaves with floral tape.  Cute!  (pictures below)


The above pictures were from church Sun.  Prom was Sat. night so the kids who went always wear their dresses and tuxes to church the next day.  It was also Confirmation Sunday.  One of the families serving refreshments after church made ALL of the cross cookies this year!  They were all the same (which looked nice) except for the color of the flower.

Bill was able to get back to planting after lunch today.  Tim worked ground.  It's very windy though so the spraying probably won't get done.  Were supposed to have storms this evening. 

I'm still trying to figure out this new Blogger format and haven't figured out how to move the pictures around yet.
