It's May, it's May the lovely month of May


We celebrate May with lots of things but the first of the month we celebrate Flora's birthday.She is a lovely daughter in law and we hope her birthday was GREAT.


We had May Day--I don't think we did much for that day except go for a walk which is always nice when I have my trusty companion Buddy by my side.

He loves our walks. He especially loves barking at all the cars and anything goes by us with wheels and anyone who walks, jogs or runs faster than us.
The Puyallup Farmer's Market began on May 2nd. We were there--rain and all. Dewey bought me a beautiful bouquet of flowers.



Buddy loves the farmer's market. There are always different breeds there roaming around with their pack leader.

And today is Cinco de Mayo. We had our second annual Cinco de Mayo celebration.

We had Mole sauce for our tamales,



We had homemade enchiladas,
homemade Mexican rice,

homemade tamales,

homemade pico de gallo,



and homemade chocolate sheet cake.
Everything homemade from scratch.
We turned on The Three Amigos and ate and watched and had fun.
The only thing that would have made it perfect would have been to have our homemade children with us.
