In spite of all the craziness, I've been up to some interesting things this month. The first weekend of May (the 5th, I believe), I went to Hazelnut's house. It was her year and a day, so after spending some time outside, going to an awesome drum circle, and making s'mores around a bonfire, we did her dedication ceremony. Congratulations to Hazelnut, an official member of the Craft!
- While we were outside, Hazelnut spotted a curious little butterfly who
was more than happy to crawl onto our fingers. Here it is with me:
And with Hazelnut:
Certainly not a camera-shy butterfly:
The bonfire grate. I love how pretty it is with the bright green foliage around it.
A wee wild violet growing in Hazelnut's yard:
For Mother's Day, my family went to the Morton Arboretum. Here was one of the trees:
In the children's garden, there were fairy statues hidden in some of the trees. Well, you know how I am with fairies!
I believe these were some kind of a Japanese Cyprus, but I could be misremembering.
The trunk on this one is wicked:
Cute little pansies:
There was a huge mess of peonies. And they were so fragrant:
The whole family spent today and yesterday expanding and planting the vegetable garden. We have chives, tomatoes, various salads, corn, watermelon, carrots, cucumber, and onions. I made the fence myself. :)
