May Photo Update

We got to see Gigi (my mother)

These were in bloom in the back yard

Sleeping on the way home from a day at the beach

Søren studies his Dad...
...who threatens to punch him in the face...
...actually they were going for "knuckles" and high fives.
I enjoyed this sequence, though my camera never caught the desired shot
And the garden finally went in
Here's the bean wall half-strung (it is now finished)

Hopefully there will be more exciting garden pictures once the seeds and starts actually grow! As a matter of fact, it already looks better out there and it's only been a few days.

What about you? What was the best part of May?

our garden for sure, the CSA starting, and days off work for our anniversary. It's been a good month.

Wait, does this mean it's almost June, oh geez.

Yeah for sun and gardens. Yes, this means it is nearly JUNE. I still feel like I had just adjusted to it being 2008, let alone half way through 2009. Sheesh!

Your Mom? You mean, your sister. What a doll! I see where you get your good looks.

And your family and garden - health in photos! Yippee!

Cherie - Thanks! I try to tell her she looks so young for her age, and I certainly don't mind inheriting those genetics (though in truth I favor my biological father's German and Scottish sides which make for lovely plump grandmothers more than the exotically youthful Chinese from my mother).
