Things to Celebrate in May

Things To Celebrate in May

How is it already May?! I feel like we just had snow on the ground and I was desperately waiting for the temperatures to go above freezing. Now we’re averaging temperatures in the 60s and planning out our garden along with the patio we hope to build.

The warmer weather is enough to celebrate on it’s own, but there are plenty of other things to celebrate in May, too!
