May went by fast, just like April. I swear that my favorite time of year speeds itself up as soon as it gets here. It was a very busy spring, but a delightful one :) And as I said before, I don't mind being busy as long as it's not insanely busy!
So here is what happened in May:
 |
| Our pear blossoms popped! |
 |
| Lots of 'em. |
 |
| Leaving Kroger's with my lovely anniversary bouquet! |
 |
| Isn't it perty-ful? :) |
 |
| This is what I made up for Robert at work :D He's a gummie bear addict. |
 |
| We went on a local weekend trip to celebrate :) |
 |
| I also used a snack machine for the *gasp* very first time :D The snickers bar was from the second time I used it. The first thing I got was some chips ahoy cookie bag...which became stuck :P I felt like RJ in Over the Hedge. I ended up shaking the whole thing, desperately trying to get my cookies. It worked! And I didn't even draw the attention of the hotel staff :D |
 |
| We saw this little cutie during our trip! |
 |
| I made this when we got back. I'm quite happy with how it turned out :) The flowers are from my myrtle patch. |
 | |
| Purple on the inside! |
 |
| Wedding memories! My dried bouquet, and lots of lovely cards from family :) |
 |
| May crowning! |
 |
| One of my Maw-maw's myrtle patches. I love the purple flowers! |
 |
| Our herb garden with some new additions! Basil and Cilantro, some of our faves. |
 |
| Parsley. |
 |
| The fairies in my garden :) |
 |
| A wreath I made from my sister's leftover wedding flowers. |
 |
| My Mary alter for the month of May. This was the first time I used my table runner from Ireland! I bought it in Galway while I was there. |
 |
| Lilacs! |
 |
| What I wore to church a few Sundays ago. |
Skirt: Goodwill
Black Flats: JCpenney's
Cami: Maurices
Necklace: Church Jewelry Sale
Black Rose Earrings: Claire's
 |
| The necklace matched perfectly! |
 |
| My first vanilla ice cream cone with sprinkles! Pure wonderful-ness. |
 |
| This adorable creature was right at my back door! I wanted to squeeze it :) I'm not a big fan of animals, but I appreciate their cuteness! |
 |
| Nerdiness overtook me when I went shopping one day.... |
 |
| Oh look! More sprinkles :D My sister made sure she got me one with sprinkles! |
 |
| Our irises popped! |
 |
| A pink one bloomed a few days later! |
 |
| I made an Indian pattern on the pavement. I've been obsessed with India lately. |
 |
| I made this clover crown on memorial day! I was quite proud of myself :) |
 |
| I wasn't trying to channel the arm in hammer ad lady for memorial day, but everyone said I looked like her :P |
How did your May turn out? Did you have an epic Memorial Day weekend? I hope you guys are enjoying warm weather like we are!
Cheers :)
Time does fly when you are older. And it's a pain. I used to want to grow up. I was stupid.
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary again!! lol
I love that you make a big deal over easy things like getting a candy from a snack machine. I did that about lamingating my picture and I was thrilled. lol.
You haz a pretty garden
NERDINESS IS FOR THE COOL PEOPLE! I LOVE SHIRTS LIKE THAT.
Totally thought your chalk drawing was a copy of Rapunzel's giant sun thing in Tangled.
OMG you do look like the arm and hammer lady! But... you know... cuter.
I refuse to act like a grown up, even if I have to BE one.
DeleteTHANKS!!! :)
It's no fun if you don't make a big deal about things like that! It's an accomplishment, no matter how small of a thing it is. AND it was fun :) I don't think *I* have ever gone to get something laminated....I went with Mom once when she needed to get it done for something, but it wasn't something of mine...so, not the same. I shall have to do it sometime and dance after it's done :D
Thank you, I LOVE my garden. Whenever I'm cooking I can just step outside and pick whatever herbs I want to cook with :)
NERDY SHIRTS ARE AWESOME! I love them. I need to find Captain America shirts for me and Robert sometime. One super hero at a time.
Haha, I was thinking of that when I was drawing it :D Now I need to look at that and copy it!
Thanks, I don't have the muscles she does...and I'm kind of glad :D Women with huge muscles look weird to me!
Batman shirts FTW!!! And happy anniversary too. ;) I get most of my clothes from second-hand-stores like that, too, although in Australia we call them "op-shops". lol Don't ask me why (actually I think "op" is short for "opportunity". But still. Miles of weird.) Gah, May DID fly fast though. And so is June. -_- I want to have a word with these months...I mean, half the year is over already?! SCARY.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by @ Notebook Sisters!
Thanks! I feel so cool when I'm wearing that shirt :D
ReplyDeleteHaha, that's so funny! I always I have to think when I use a word that is normal to me and someone asks "what does that mean?" I'm like "ummm, good question!" I usually use the word "thrift" when it comes to that that kind of shopping and I'm not sure what it means :D It's terrible! Op-shop is fun to say :D
I'm convinced that June is going to be and is one of those insanely busy months :P It's already the 14th and I'm like "WHAT HAPPENED HERE?!" I haven't blogged hardly at all because I've been so ridiculously busy :P I HAVE been reading a lot though, so I guess I am getting something fun done this month :)
