~Happy May Day ~

Every May 1st it is tradition to make a basket and fill it with flowers. Once done you go to friends and neighbors houses, knock on their doors and leave the flowers on the door step and run.
I also left flowers on my Mom and sister's graves. In life I never missed a year. If they are looking down from heaven they are seeing that I still drop flowers for them and run. The whole time with a smile on my face.
I didn't get any flowers this year so I took a picture of the ones I made for Lisa. I tried putting them on the barn door but the ponies were more interested in eating them. Therefore I left them on the gate for her.
When I was young (and we wont say how long ago that was) they did may baskets but sadly that tradition has long faded. How lovely that you keep it up.
