May Day!!

Today is May Day!! I was excited to help the kids decorate paper cones and then fill them with flowers, to hang on the doorknobs of people they chose. It was fun to hear them speak of each person they'd chosen and hear them talk about how surprised they thought the recipients would be to open the door and find flowers.
The kids will never be undercover cops or the best toilet paper-ers (is that a word?) as they were so loud in their flip-flops and constant giggles. They get big points for always embracing the fun and it is a happy tradition. Yay for May (and flowers and smiles)!








The kids had fun decorating the cones and filling them with flowers. I loved that they talked about each person who they planned to receive the flowers as they were filling them.











So exciting for them to hang the cones, knock and then....




turn around and run to the car!



The three of us who were still in the car at each stop would giggle and giggle as we watched our partner run. So fun!




Jackson got a kick out of the whole thing. This is the same kid who, during our Caroling Party two years ago, would hand a person at each home we sang at a candy cane while telling them "trick or treat!" and expect candy in return. Thankfully, he is the 3rd kid and just goes with the flow during every silly thing we do.
