Bits of May

Here are a few photos taken with my phone in May:

I joked that if you looked inside my head, it would look something like this, and that's pretty much true...but really I was happily packing up orders; a card I made with cut paper, needle and thread; beautiful pink blooms...not sure what these are (they aren't cherry blossoms but look sort of similar--anyone know?); and having coffee in the sun on one of the first warm days.

A cupcake makes a good afternoon snack IMO; the Kogod courtyard at the American Art Museum is such a nice space to spend time, and the glass canopy makes amazing shadows; an epic-scale battle between a dinosaur and an alien; and a sellout crowd at Nats park.

Taking a coffee break with my new Wyeth book from the exhibit we saw a few weeks ago (will probably blog about it soon); inadvertently blending in with my surroundings on an afternoon walk; pretty row tops; and looking out the window of the train and watching another train pass by.

Lots of leisurely afternoons in May; at the rose garden; the park; the back yard where I found a bird's egg; and walking around Shepherdstown, which I blogged about last week.

We spent lots of time outdoors in May, which was worth it even though I stayed sick because of it. Actually, I'm still sort of a ball of sinus congestion, and it feels like allergy season is never ending, but I'll happily take that over winter colds any day. Spring was beautiful...you hear that, summer? You have a lot to live up to! ;)
