Happy May to you, devoted blog readers!
Took this photo in 2003 while visiting the beautiful Butchart Gardens on Vancouver Island.
You know, those baskets are still hanging from my kitchen ceiling (see my Feb. 27 blog entry or click here) and with Easter well over, I’m not exactly sure what to hang for the next couple of months. I’d send an updated picture of my seasonal hangings if I had any! If you have any ideas, leave a comment.
[ something for the kids ]
It’s May 1st, which means a new month and a new kit of the month! Click here to check it out. It’s designed specifically with kids in mind and is full of fun projects for them to do over the summer.

[ for the locals ]
For those of you who live in the Phoenix/Mesa area, I wanted to mention something going on this weekend — a fundraiser for a great cause. Garrett is a great 20-year-old who had a tragic accident last year, leaving him paralyzed. Desert Devils Gymnastics will be hosting a fundraiser for Garrett (who was one of their coaches) on Saturday and all are invited to attend. They’re raising money to help pay for the huge expense that we all hope will eventually lead to Garrett walking again. You can read all about Garrett’s story here and this link will take you directly to info about the event on May 3rd in Mesa. Best wishes to you, Garrett!
