May Day

Happy May Day!  It's crazy that it's May already.  Where is this year going?  It was almost 90 degrees here today, which is crazy.  I'm not ready for the heat, but as I said yesterday the sunshine has been nice.  I've done several flower posts, so today I thought I would do a specific flower, and tulips came to mind because they're so springy.

These are pretty.  I don't think I want a pair, but they're still pretty.

I think these are rain or gardening shoes, but they also kind of look like slippers.  Again, pretty, but not a pair I want. 

There were a lot of these.  Some with tulips painted on them, some just wooden shoes with tulips inside.  Makes sense as wooden shoes and tulips are associated with Holland.  I would use these for decoration, but not as footwear.

 

These I would wear.  Is it weird that I would wear the pink ones but not the first pair?

So sweet!
 

See comment above.  Repeat.

Hope you all had a lovely day that involved flowers of some kind, even if they were just on shoes or a computer screen.

May Day

Happy May Day!  Did you leave anyone flowers and then doorbell ditch today?  I didn't, but I actually thought about how much fun it might be.  Instead I spent a good chunk of the day sermonizing at Starbucks.  It went pretty well, actually, despite the fact that I've already had 3 church-related anxiety dreams this week.  All in all it wasn't a bad first day of May.

Our mantel is ready for May!  The flowers are birthday gifts (told you I could keep working that in), and the people, as always are creations of my mama.  See the May Day theme?  The girl has flowers, as does the boy, who is standing next to the May pole.  He's also wearing a fishing vest, though, because Mom says that's what he'd rather be doing but the girl corralled him into helping her.

 

I think that second to last picture says it all:  Crazy floral.  I actually like some of the shoes, especially the rain boots and the first 2 pairs of Toms.  That purple pair are definitely crazy. 

Hope your day involved some fun, floral shoes, or better yet, actual flowers...maybe left on your door by a door bell ditching neighbor.
