Katie and a white crab tree
May is my favorite month. Every year I wish May could be a little longer…like maybe 10 or 11 months long.
There is so much hope about May. The garden isn’t planted yet, so nothing has failed to grow or produce crops.
Red crab tree
I haven’t felt the unyielding pressure to weed every waking moment. Though perhaps I should.
The sky seems bluer, the grass is green. It’s not too hot and the mornings and evenings are pleasantly cool.
Redbud
There is not snow. Usually.
Apple blossoms snow flakes waiting to fall.
I wish I could keep May around forever.
But since I can’t, I’m going to enjoy the last few days of the month and wait patiently to see what June brings.

I must plant some crab apple trees this year! I need them!
Your yard is absolutely gorgeous, and I’m so jealous of your perfect, green grass. Makes me want to take off my shoes and run through it.

Well, we won’t show you the ‘gifts’ the deer have left all over…so you probably don’t want to wander barefoot! YES go get some crab apple trees! Do you have any redbud? That is beautiful too….combination is stunning.
