Happy May Day

Growing up in Iowa, my hometown celebrated May 1st.  It's known as May Day.  You celebrate it by filling small baskets with goodies (popcorn, flowers, candy, etc) for friends/neighbors.  Then you take the baskets to their doorsteps, ring the door bell and then run.  Yes, run....because if the neighbor/friend catches you after you ring there doorbell then they can kiss/hug you.  As a kid, what can be more fun then getting to ring a bell and then have someone chase you.  I remembering loving May Day and this year Anders did too.  Here is a picture of him running after leaving baskets on one of our neighbors' door.
 I know most people don't celebrate May Day in Texas, so I goggled and found some history on it May Day Baskets.  It is something fun...maybe you can try it next year.
